Bones Fic Rec

Mar 22, 2007 10:19

There are times when fanfic goes to another level, when the writer's skill and vision transcends characterization and expectations and lifts off into something new and fresh. Most of us probably strive for that and when we get there -- if we get there -- it's cause for rejoicing.

This is a Seeley Booth character piece, rated R -- but it's worth reading no matter who your OTC or ship is. Craving For Salt by sweptawaybayou.

Snow's a buddy of mine, but she is also one of the best writers I know. And she shines here.

In 400 words she does what many can't do in 1,000 -- she brings life to her character through an evocative, crisp, and sensual sense of place. You don't have to know anything about the fandom she writes in or the character she presents to be placed in the moment --and to have your breath stolen from your lungs.

Isn't that what we work for?

Go, read. And feed her. Beg her for more. And thank you.

ETA: Just to be clear: while this is a Booth piece with no other Bones characters, it is homoerotic. Hopefully that won't stop you from reading a fantastic piece of writing, but if you're not so inclined you have been warned.
