5 New-ish Spuffy Writers (and their works)

Jan 06, 2016 13:29

It’s a new golden age for fans of good Spike/Buffy fic, much of it funny. There is a whole fresh crop of excellent writers dipping into the Buffyverse for the first time. Here are five that have found new things to say - in sparkling prose - about the pairing. In alphabetical order:

*sigh* I may have to discard a decade long rule and join EF. I'm only familiar with three of these new authors and I've also been told there is comic-based fic being written over there. I miss the days when everybody was on LJ! LOL

For Spuffy, it really is the place to be these days. All credit goes to the wonderful mod over there, Susan (aka sjp9920). Some other writers to check out: zabjade, reenasas, mak324, tempestt, myrabeth. Some of the best comic-based stories are by a Tumblr author whose handle is soulfulspikethekiller, but who goes by Dactylgirl on EF, and TerrusDacktellus on AO3.

Heh. That ought to keep you busy for awhile...

Oh, that's me! Thanks for reccing me! I've just joined LJ, (well I've been on it ages, but I've just started using it for real) because I had the same feeling from the opposite direction, lol, that I'm missing out on a lot of fandom fun on LJ.

Welcome! I'm so glad to see you here. Stop by my page for links to all sorts of good places to hang out on LJ.

The splintering of fandom by platform is just like what's happening for me in RL: should I call someone? Home or mobile? Text? Email? Facebook message? Argh! Covering all the bases is just part of life these days...

Thanks, I'll have a look! Yeah, it is kinda difficult to keep all the sites straight, it seems that certain places favour certain types of content. I'm only sorry I didn't make a real go of LJ earlier.

slaymesoftly January 6 2016, 23:31:53 UTC

Heh. Yep, I really should. Thanks.

Thanks, REBCAKE! Things really have been busy at EF lately. I'm glad to do my part, but really I'm just selfish and want a nice place to read all the Spuffy :).

Your hard work is our incredible gain! I hope you know how much so many of us appreciate it!

lady_sybyl January 7 2016, 09:32:05 UTC

Well your selfishness really works out for the rest of us. If it wasn't for EF and all the feedback I get there, I'd never have written any fic.
