Chuck Shurley is an author who wrote the low selling Supernatural book series, which he writes under the pen name Carver Edlund. The contents of the books are actually Sam and Dean's lives, the details of which come to him in his dreams. Chuck continued to write even though the books were no longer being published. Unbeknownst to him, the inspiration of the books is divine - as he is a prophet of God.1 Chuck says he started writing because of a childhood crush on Nancy McKeon, the actress who
played Jo on the TV
show The Facts of Life. Chuck thinks he must have sent her 40-50 letters, but she
never wrote back.

Well, there's only one

Obviously I'm a god... I'm definitely a god. A cruel, cruel, capricious god."
