Gimme Some Recs!

[ithildin]

As some of you have probably read over the last few months, I'm reading and rereading really old Highlander fic that I've stashed away over the last ten years. I have found some some wonderful new stuff lately by keerawa & amonitrate, amongst others, but I'd love to read more. So if there are stories you've read, or have written -- don't be shy! -- that you'd like to rec that are het or gen, please do. Even if you have a rec that's vaguely slashy (I think I've seen the term pre-slash?) that would be kewl too. OCs are fine, so are xovers, any rating at all.

Thank you in advance for your input!

Hon, if you don't read slash, you're missing some of the best stories in fandom, including Rhiannon's Linewars and Sharon Cross' Katastrophe (dead on characters and hysterically funny!!) not to mention her eerie AU Specter series. MacGeorge's Under the Boardwalk, Maygra, Unovis, Killa, The Krell...the list goes on!!

Come to think of it, I may be the only one who does write gen. That's just plain scary. And that's only because I haven't gotten to it yet. Wow.

There is a WIP by Nutmeg called "As Time Goes By" that's pretty good. You can find it here (http://members.shaw.ca/sylviavolk/). It's about halfway down the page and starts with "Fundamental Things". You can also check out Daire's Fanfic Refuge (http://www.daire.org/refuge/index.html). It's mostly G or PG and what isn't is clearly marked. There's one on there by Willusa that gave me the shivers: "Go".

I hope that helps you. Do try some slash, though. You can always skip over anything that you don't like. JMHO. :)

Well, I write it too :) Just a teeny minority of the fandom, I know.

I have tried the skipping over thing, but the way I read is in flashes of content, so that doesn't work so well. And once I hit the slash, it throws me out of the story.

Thanks for the pointers :)

I write gen, too.

So do amonitrate and Sylvia Volk.
