Why?

On one hand, so that people who can't go to cons or meet&greets or whatever (and anyone else) have the opportunity to write to Jared/say what they want to say and know he will receive it.

But also because of how a huge part of the fandom talks about both Jared & Sam. I want to create something that shows that despite it all, there's a lot of people all over who love Sam, and who truly engage with & are interested in his character –because of Sam, and not just in relation to other characters/the ships–, and who appreciate/love Jared and his acting and what he does. Obviously he knows he has fans, but if you've ever been to a con or simply have been recommended SPN posts on Instagram/Twitter/Facebook, you know how heavy the Dean & D3stiel ship bias is, and how hard it is to find anything that focuses positively on Sam or Jared unless you're already in a smaller community/corner of the fandom.

What can I write about?

You can send letters with opinions, personal interpretations, analysis, thanks, compliments, questions and anything else you can think of.

Sam's character, Jared as a person & as an actor, should be the focus.

Examples/suggestions: how much and why you like a certain arc or a specific trait of Sam. Things you like and admire about Jared. Why/that you liked the way he portrayed certain things (like the character switches during possession arcs, body language and facial expressions, line deliveries etc). Scenes/moments/things he said that stuck with you. Scenes/plotlines regarding Sam you wish would've been mentioned again or explored more. You can talk about the way Sam's character gets mistreated narratively or criticised by the audience, and how you feel about it or why you disagree with it (like how Sam gets the blame for the s5 apocalypse, soulless Sam, S8-9 etc). Things you wondered about, questions about Sam & plotlines, Jared's opinions about certain arcs/scenes/retcons/lines, about acting choices or literally Whatever. Obviously you won't get an answer to a question, but it'll show interest, and might motivate him to talk more openly about certain things again. That you liked "unpopular" plotlines or things that a lot of people criticize Sam for, like Amelia or the demon blood arc. Scenes, or things Jared did that made you happy, motivated you etc. Things that remind you of Sam/Jared or recommending things you think he'd like. You can also talk about his other projects, old or upcoming.

Please feel free & encouraged to mention/talk about super small details, specific scenes and episodes, Jared moments or acting choices, etc. It'd cool if we have a lot of little different things!

Are there any limits or rules?

The only "rules" would be that if you talk about your mental health or personal struggles, don't go into too much detail or focus your letter ENTIRELY on it. For example, you can say that Sam's character or Jared have helped you through difficult times, and thank him for that or for AKF. Or that a specific storyline of Sam has related to your own issues. But try not to write an entire letter in graphic detail about your mental health issues/traumas. Talk about other things too. If you have any questions or you're unsure about what you wrote, just ask. I won't leave out a letter without a word.

For fanart: no AI, no porn.

What's the difference between sending via Google Forms or Email?

You can send in your letters/fanart via Google Forms or per E-Mail to [email protected] until May 10th 2026

While Google Forms asks you to sign in with one of your Emails to use it,* I * won't actually see who sent the letter. It's anonymous, but also means that you won't get a notification that your letter has been received.

Per E-Mail, I can reply to you that I received it & added it to the book.

Good to know:

There is no text length minimum or limit. There is no limit of the amount of letters I'll put into the book. The letters will be in the order I receive them in.

If you send a letter via E-Mail, it should be in the E-Mail body (plain text) or PDF. Art can be JPG or PDF.

There is no age minimum/limit, you don't have to be 18 to participate.

If you sent a letter AND fanart, the fanart will be right with your letter in the book. If it's sent in together, I'll add it together, so that if you want to write about what you drew, it's clear what work you're talking about.

If you later want to edit your letter or add something to it, please send me the entire letter again with your edits, and I'll just switch the old to the new version. I wont manually edit anything.

If you think your friends/mutuals outside of Tumblr would like to participate, they can. You can also find posts for it on Twitter and Instagram !

If you have any questions, ask me per DMs, ask box or Email.
