Happy Dean Day 2011

Welcome to Dean Day! Formerly known as Valentines Day.

Last year a group of bloggers and huge Dean Winchester fans got together and declared February 14th as Dean Day. We all had so much fun we've decided to do it again. I'm hoping it becomes a regular tradition because it's fun to spend a day declaring our love for Dean and Supernatural.

To share my love for this great show I am offering up a paperback copy of

The "Supernatural" book of monsters, spirits, demons and ghouls

Fans of the blockbuster television phenomenon can rejoice! A one-of-a-kind compilation of all of Sam and Dean's demon-busting knowledge, The Supernatural Book of Monsters, Spirits, Demons, and Ghouls contains illustrations and detailed descriptions that catalogue the more than two dozen otherworldly enemies that most people believe exist only in folklore, superstition, and nightmares:vampires, ghosts, revenants, reapers, and even bloody clowns. You'll find within these pages Sam and Dean's notes, observations, and memories interwoven with sections of John Winchester's invaluable journal, making this book the perfect companion to every thrilling episode—and an essential weapon in the secret war against the hidden creatures of the darkness!

See the bottom of the post to see how to win this book.

As for Dean…

There are so many things to love about him that it's hard to decide where to begin. The most obvious thing is how yummy he is. Each week whether he is fighting bad guys, teasing his brother Sammy, or hitting on women, he looks damn good doing it.

And when he smiles… swoon.

He's also funny as hell. So much so that fans call his witty wisdom Deanisms. I think it's his combination of humor , devotion to those he cares about and his unshaking faith in doing the right thing that makes him the perfect hero in Supernatural. I hope as a writer that I've learned something about creating characters from Dean.

He also drives my car.

Okay so mine was pea green and not nearly as shiny but that classic Impala was my first car as a teenager and it holds many of my fondest teenage memories.

His taste in music is exceptional. Seriously anyone with a fondness for classic rock is awesome in my book.

I really love it when an incredible actor and wonderfully written character meet. It's Hollywood magic not to be forgotten. So even when Supernatural ends you can bet I'll be watching my DVDs of each season for a very long time to come.

If you are a fan and look back over the years, there have been so many memorable, stick-with-you moments. Pudding anyone? Or how about "Dean screams like a girl" or the "Supernatural convention"

I'm trying not to repeat myself from last year so instead I will leave you with a couple of videos from some of my favorite moments of this season so far.

Dean Vs. The Fairy – This one doesn't allow me to embed the video here but I think it's worth a look. By the time he says nipple I'm on the floor laughing.

And the Twi-Hard episode.
