2013's Self Pimping Rec List!

It's been a few years since [livejournal.com profile] marguerite_26 made the Self Pimping Rec List and I've been dying to know what authors & artists consider Fandom New Favourites from their point of view.

So, with [livejournal.com profile] marguerite_26's permission I want to invite you to the 2013's Self Pimping Rec List!

Thank you ♥ I'm so so happy I made Petunia real. Throughout the books, especially in the later ones, I related so much to her through my own struggles with motherhood. That got me thinking.

Some of my most beloved canon characters aren't "real" for people, or if they are, they're only there to be despised. Petunia, Dudley, Percy, Peter, to name the major ones.

Thank you again for giving it a shot. (I have lots and lots and lots of angst. Idk why, but it's what I write best. I think if I ever tried fluff, it might end up ridiculous ;)

Somehow I almost always develop a weird fondness (or burning love) for some side character, often enough one who's seen as despicable by others. In LotR it's Gríma Wormtongue, in GoT it's Theon Greyjoy, and there are others in other fandoms.

Thank you, really. Hearing that was very good for me right now. Without lovely readers/commenters/reccers like you, fandom would be nowhere close to as good and enjoyable as it is.
