Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Spread the self-love ❤

(💜💜💜)

at first I was like 'lol have I even written five fics?' but no, I have written a whole 23 at this point, yay me

these are ordered by recency rather than favoritism necessarily but:

the future moves under our feet (Nirvana in Fire, 12k, rated T, LC/MCS/XJY) - there are definitely bits of this I wish I could do a more skilful job with, but also I'm really pleased with a lot of the conversations here. The LC/MCS exchanges in particular gave me such joy to write, and I love these characters so much that writing them was just me typing a line and then giddily grinning to myself, or occasionally tearing up. You know, the usual NiF fic experience.

Make a Mercy Out of Me (The Disguiser, 2k, rated E, ML/MC) - I went mildly insane after episode 23 and wrote this in a feverish daze. I am not one of this world's natural smut writers, but as this caters to Me, Personally, I remain quite pleased by how it turned out

Breathe in For Luck (Mysterious Lotus Casebook, 8k, rated T, LLH/various) - sometimes a fic just happens to you, and that was the case here. I had one night of insomnia, wrote most of the first chapter, and then basically did nothing else with my free time for the next week. I love writing conversations in which everyone is feeling a lot and not saying it, or expressing it sideways, and I also love characters who are so blunt it hurts, so I had a great time with some of these chapters.

And Green the Ground Below (The Untamed, 6k, rated G, LXC & WN) - I'm not sure how well the horticultural elements stand up here, but as a meditation on grief and guilt and learning to be alive when you're not sure you want to be, I'm very proud of it.

The Winding Roads, They Led Me Here (The Bletchley Circle, 1k, rated G, unrequited Millie/Susan) - another one I wrote in a state of feverish possession. I don't think I've written anything else in the 2nd person before or since, but I think it really works here. (I can neither confirm nor deny that this fic was me processing Some Stuff about an unrequited crush of my own, but I think this stands as both cathartic and quite good in its own right.)
