i loved it so much that my friends and i actually teamed up to translate it into russian. we were so inspired that we have already finished translating all the chapters — it turned out to be almost 220,000 words in russian!

i do have a little bit of a confession to make, though: we got so incredibly excited about your amazing work that we already started posting our translation on a Russian fanfiction site. We made absolutely sure to give you full credit as the author and linked directly back to you, of course!

But I wanted to reach out and do things properly. I’m writing to ask for your official permission: would you be okay with us keeping the translation on the Russian site, and also posting it on AO3? (If we post on AO3, we will definitely use the "translation" feature to link it directly to your original fic).

Here is the Google Doc with our work so far: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KZs4DXFh-fZovkZZv_ca2j3DLQwS51M7BJrs4goEavw/edit?usp=drivesdk

Just a heads-up: it currently contains the fully edited version up to chapter 6, and we are constantly updating it as we polish the rest of the text.

If you are not comfortable with your work being translated or posted elsewhere, please just say the word! We will take it down immediately, no questions asked and absolutely no hard feelings. We just have massive respect for your writing. Thank you for your time! 💙💚

hi there! omg so glad I opened this app today

yes!! absolutely you can post. I am so honored you and your friends were touched by my story enough that you went to the trouble of translating such a beast of a fic 💖

Sam’s not sure what other people do when they are rocketed back in time and into their old bodies, but since he has the chance to do it over again, he decides he’s going to make some friends.

The next time dad leaves him behind, Sam pores through Bobby’s library until he finds a zanna summoning and keeps using it until Sully agrees to play messenger. In the meantime Sam thinks about what to write. He decides to start simple.

“Dear Max,

I’m hoping you want a friend. My mom died in a fire when I was a baby too…”

Day 1

hey! good question - i had wanted to start up again in the fall but it's going to be later than that. my day job is a lot busier in autumn apparently! (i started it in april so i didn't realize) and it has a lot of great connections so i've also been offered to teach some seminars on my career field and attend other events so i... have much less free time than last year 😅 the less fortunate side of having a fulfilling job ig

i am entering nanowrimo with the hope of getting more of s3 written! me and other destiel writers are doing it as a joint effort to encourage each other :)
