So, with marguerite_26's permission I want to invite you to the 2013's Self Pimping Rec List!

Are we allowed to do it per fandom? Like, since I write primarily for HP and TW, could I do two separate responses, one for each fandom? (Yes, this is me being both shy and not shy...)

[capitu]

Yeah, per fandom would be great!

One response for each fandom. :D

And if you have more than one favourite story/fan favourite, that's awesome, too!

[eidheann_writes]

O.O

Oh I can't wait to see what people do!

[tryslora]

Yeah, there are a couple where there are ties. I have to go look at my lists! I shall do this later today, I'm keeping the tab open. Then I shall have to start bookmarking what everyone else says, too.

[capitu]

Me too! XD

I'm hoping you'll fill it, too. Obviously. *pokes* <3 Don't make me beg. ^^

Re: *waves*

[oakstone730.livejournal.com]

I'd forgotten about this story! It was wonderful fun!

[capitu]

I loved A Dream of Waking more than I can possibly say. The FEELS!

And A Year on the Wizarding Convention Circuit was for me like your intro card, you know? The first story by you I read. Always a favourite.

[eidheann_writes]

It was a lot of firsts for me, as well. It will always be *a* favorite for that.

Can't wait to see what everyone else recs - here is mine.

[oakstone730.livejournal.com]

Fandom: HP

Most Popular: Twist of Fate (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7429542/1/Twist-of-Fate)

Warnings: Angst, Book-length H/D, starts during 4th year ends post-DH, pretty tight to canon except definitely EWE

Personal Favourite: Last Dance (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8884136/1/The-Last-Dance) (Cedric/Charlie, canon-ish, during Tri-Wizard)

Warning: Angst, Major Character Death

Totally pimping now - Twist is only four reviews from 600 on FF which is totally amazing to me. Never thought that it would get such a strong following. It is not perfect (SPaG warning!)- only during the last few chapters did I find a beta.

Re: *waves*

[oakstone730.livejournal.com]

I meant Shagging Harry (wouldn't we all like to)...I'm putting Nancy Boys on my TBR list.

Re: Can't wait to see what everyone else recs - here is mine.

[capitu]

I loved Twist so much! It was my comfort read, amazingly enough because it's pretty angsty, but it felt so, so familiar. All the characters and see them grow, you know? I think it's the start that made it so, because it works canon so well from the beginning. <3

I need to get my hands on ALL your Cedric!fic. You write Cedric beautifully.

[mab.livejournal.com]

What a brilliant idea! I'm tracking this to read all the wonderful self-recs!
