salixbabylon | Harry Potte recs list update (Reply)

After two weeks of working on it, ever since

slash_elitists was started, I *finally* finished a project I started three fucking years ago -- a recs page for Harry Potter fanfics. I had an Excel spreadsheet with over 200 fics and I managed to cut that down to about 50 fics AND find working links for them all.

This was no small task; I had to get rid of any fics I couldn't remember (clearly not very good), all WIPS (except 2 outstanding ones), anything I simply couldn't track down at all, and *cough* re-read the ones I wasn't sure about or had been completed since I stopped reading HP two years ago (after all, if I would only read it once, it musn't be that good.)

So if you read HP slash, go, reap the fruits of my labor. :)

Frankly, I have to say, the good writers in HP slash are GREAT writers, but there are SO many crappy writers in that fandom... I would say the LOTR-FPS fandom is slightly better, the POTC slash is even better, and the LOTR_RPS is the best-quality writers of any fandom I've read.

Anyone else notice anything similar (or want to flame me for being so wrong) in their fandoms?

Also, I can't sleep. Massive insomnia. I keep getting wired and restless around 11 PM... Most annoying. Blech.
