capitu | Question, a favour and recs.

Question: As a writer, when someone recs one of your stories, where do you rather they link the fic, to a livejournal post or to AO3 (or other fanfiction site?

I just wonder because sometimes I have more than one link and I always wonder where the author would like better.

Also, I need a favour. The thing, the

hd_smoochfest's prompts are going to be up while I'm away. I'm not sure if prompting by proxy is going to be allowed, but if it is, I'm going to need someone to prompt my prompts. :/

I'll make you a pdf of one of your stories as a thank you. :) Most of you are writers, I mean so yeah, if not a pdf I'll do something as a thank you, I promise. Please? With a cheery on top?

And a couple of recs from the

hp_kinkfest because, damn.

Title: Small Pleasures by kitty_fic
Rating: NC 17
Pairing: Draco/Albus
Word Count: 2,580
Summary: There is something about Albus Severus Potter that always sets Draco's nerves on edge, something that has less to do with the fact that he is Harry Potter's son than Draco is willing to admit, something he has spent much too much time over the years purposefully not thinking about... but when Albus pays him an unexpected visit one night, everything changes.
Kink Showcased: age/size disparity
Notes: This is a pairing I don't usually read, but I absolutely loved this version of Al; cheeky, and determined to get what he wanted; Draco.

Title: An Idiot's Guide to Crossing the Road by who_la_hoop
Rating: NC 17
Pairing: Harry/Draco, Harry/Draco/Snape
Word Count: 10,000
Summary: Snape can't really be alive . . . can he? But why is someone with his face lurking about around a certain lollipop lady? When Harry and Draco discover the truth, it's possible their lives will never be the same again.
Kink Showcased: Uniform kink (lollipop person/crossing guard)
Notes: Threesomes are generally not my thing, but this story is outstanding. The hilarity of Harry and Draco tailing Snape while he's following the lollipop lady is brilliant. And then there's the sex. HOT, okay?

Title: The Secret Incantation by pauraque
Rating: NC 17
Pairing: Hermione/Sirius
Word Count: 5,000
Summary: This is what she wants. This is what he needs.
Kink Showcased: femdom
Notes: I was going to pass this story, but then marianna_merlo recced it and I followed it, and god, it's amazing. I love it because the characters are not forced into the situation, they rather grow into them, and Hermione experiencing the rush her own power is brilliant.

Title: Pretty Please with a Ginny on Top by rickey_a
Rating: NC 17
Pairing: Harry/Ginny
Word Count: 4,500
Summary: Ginny discovers her inner 'top'.
Kink Showcased: Pegging
Notes: This pairing is, was, rather, a bit of a squick of mine (The kinky fest is throwing down all my barriers!), but the way Ginny discovers her sexuality through the story is wonderful. This story was partly inspired by this sexy drawing of reallycorking (linked on the story) and you'll see on the fic just how sexy it is to see Ginny doing just that to Harry. Delicious.

So, please? Will you tell me about your prefferences? Will you prompt for me? Will you enjoy these recs? Do you want some tea?

Gah! I totally forgot about KinkFest! I really need to go there and devour some hot sexy fics! *glances mournfully at pile of work that's keeping me away from KinkFest*

Thanks for the rec, bebe!

Also, I'm not sure about how writers feel about linking recs to their livejournal or the fest - if it's a fest fic - or other fanfiction archives like FF.net or AO3, but I usually just link the one I read and enjoyed... and absolutely must have in my list of recs (because I might wanna go back and read it again). I do hope it's not a big deal though because I don't want to offend anybody and always make sure credit is given to the rightful author/artist.

It's also really not that hard to google up other links to the fic. Say, in my list there is a rec linked to FF.net and the same fic could be found on lj... if there's a reader who's browsing my rec list who wants to read that fic but didn't like to read it on FF.net, there's always google. He/She could always google for other links to the same fic. That's what I do.

I mean, where I link the fics to... it's mostly a personal preference thing. I happened to find this particular fic on this particular site (I know the fic is hosted on other sites too but I found THIS ONE on THIS SITE) so I put that one in my rec list. That's it.

It doesn't seem to be a big deal where you link your recs as long as there's a way to leave feedback to the authors.

I (almost) always link to the fest post while the fest is still going on, but when it's an older fic I'm about to rec I end up with two links and well, I suppose it's a personal choice, but I like lj and AO3 best of all.

And I have to check the kinky fest as well. I'm sure I've missed some goodies by now.

Question, a favour and recs.
