Yesterday, I was talking to deliberatehips in the comments of the meta post I made, and I said something about how there are so many fabulous bandom writers who aren't in DYW, and she said, "Really? I rely on recs!" And I asked if she wanted some recs from me, and she said sure, and I started writing a comment, and then I broke the comment limit. /o\ Also, I thought other people might be interested. So: post!

What I'm going to do here is rec authors who aren't members of damnyouwentz, but who ARE writing great bandslash fic. There are a ton of fantastic authors over that way, and I love their fic to death - but most people already know about it. So hey, let's talk about some of the people who aren't in the comm! This probably won't be helpful to anyone who moves in the same fannish circles I do, but what the hell. All FOB (with some crossovers), because if I started doing MCR, we'd be here all night, srsly, and I'm just pointing to a few stories from each person - but consider this a rec for all their fic, because these are amazing writers, and you should read it all, okay? Okay.

( recs! )

Oh, and on the subject of recs, I have to say that makesmewannadie has been posting bandom rec sets for a while now, and if you've never been in a fandom with her before, take my advice and investigate the depths of her awesome. quettaser recs some more reccers over here. But the absolute best resource for me personally to find new fic in this fandom has been del.icio.us, which allows me to browse tags for pairing or fandom or genre, see what my friends are reading through the network feature, and see what lots of people seem to be enjoying, through the feature that lets you know how many people have saved a certain link. Check it out, if you haven't! It's pretty fabulous!
