My feelings are gay fanart from pixiv. ([personal profile] tomomichi) wrote2004-11-23 08:35 am

*stares at the Harry Potter fandom* ....wow. That was, hands down, the fastest, most dissatisfying turn-around (burnout?) I have ever experienced. I thought... if I just stayed with the Sirius/Remus fic... maybe just the MPWW-era stuff... that I could... I mean... I just.... ....I'm going back to anime fandoms now and never, ever leaving again. *twitches* But anyway. Fleeting Fancies has been updated with all the recs posted up until now. (I've been updating a little here and there, but gotten lazy about marking my place.) Some cosmetic stuff, especially with Gundam SEED, but mostly just archiving everything.

Where did you go in search for HP fics? Most of the stuff at ffnet is crap. Check recs from people like [livejournal.com profile] ntamara and fics by [livejournal.com profile] rushlight75, [livejournal.com profile] wikdsushi, [livejournal.com profile] amanuensis1 [hardcore], [livejournal.com profile] nufaciel and so on...

There are lots of archives like Fiction Alley, Potter Slash Archive and restrictedsection.org - PSA has some great stuff at least. Google should find them.

The best website for HP fanfics is by far Fictionalley.org (www.fictionalley.org, how surprising). "Underwater Light" and "Draco Malfoy the Amazing Boucing ... rat?" by Maya are the only fics I'm still waiting for an update.

And att www.greyblue.net, you can read "The Mirror of Maybe" which is a WIP and rather long, but overall a very, very nice read.

Anyway I'm not into the HP fandom anymore these days. I have grown tired of reading nearly identical fics with nearly identical characterization and plot. Only Maya's and MidnightBlue's fics still hold any interest for me. :)

Yes, abandon the evils of Potter fandom, Becky. Embrace . . . anything else, anything at all. I'm not picky. Hooray! Happy dance, happy dance! Confetti time! Whee~!

. . . What? ^_^

::laughs:: You people are making me feel almost guilty about being a Sirius/Remus shipper.




... Almost.

I get all my HP recs from Unfity for Society, pretty much. ^^;; I tend to stick to Mauraders Sirius/Remus too, as does she, so I'm pretty happy just following her around.

You sound upset over fanwaking, though, not fic-quality. o_O;;

You know, I just realized you don't have the shoebox project listed. Have you read it? I don't even TOUCH the HP fandom, except in very strange cases... this one is worth it:

Have you read Redeeming time (http://www.howlkingdom.org/archive/minx/redeemingtime01.shtml)? It's MWPP-era, kind of centering on James, but with nice hints of Sirius/Remus in there. I burned myself out on HP fanfic a while ago too, but I still found it enjoyable to read.
