Take your daughter to work day. Um .. fic .. writer .. person ...

[seraphcelene]

So, I'm perusing. Looking, peering at what's in my bookmarks and trying to cull my favorite fics of 05 from a realatively unassuming list of what appears to be mostly fine fic. Nothing really stunning, omigawd amazing. At least, not what I've read. I jump over to the author archives that I keep saved and scroll down to glossing. Lo and behold! That little girl's written a tremendous amount of fic, and as I am on a tight schedule, I am asking for aid.

Rec me your favorite fic by glossing. I'm looking to start reading and I gotta start somewhere. Might as well be with the guaranteed quality!

Yikes. Picking *one* Gloss fic is like asking someone to pick *one* truffle. *g*

I like:

Mystery Play (http://www.octavesoftheheart.com/sublime/mystery.htm), which is B/A.

and

Small Illuminated Dying Things (http://www.octavesoftheheart.com/sublime/illuminated.htm), which is B/A/Oz

and

Bath and a Story (http://www.geocities.com/glossolalia_01/bath.html) (which deals with incest, so may not be your cup of tea)

and Room (http://www.livejournal.com/users/glossing/205078.html#cutid1), which she recently posted in her LJ- it's Angel, Nina and Spike is various porny combinations...but it's *so* in character it's spooky.

I really love all of Gloss's stuff. I think she's a terrific writer and *the* best Oz writer out there. Plus, she writes lots of angsty stuff, which is my kink.

Don't I know it!! Bath and A Story is one of my all-time favorite fic and made the fave list for '04.

I'll be diving into the rest of your recs this weekend. Thanks for playing. :D

Kink!

oh sweet monkeys, there is way too much to choose from.

i'd advise you to pick a pairing you are intrigued by and start there. I have yet to come across anything i don't love. As one might expect, her Oz is particularly good.

i recently finished Book of Daniel and thought it was amazing.

I love her Dawn/Nina fic which i can't remember the name of.

I love her Wes/Gunn stuff.

oh! and her Xander/Oz which i believe is called Nice Shirt.
