My darling fellow fangirls, our first challenge week, of New Writers recs, is CLOSED. Fabulous thanks to the 16 reccers who stepped up to show us what we've been missing.

New challenge to be announced first thing in the morning! Stick around!

Title: There's No Good Time to Discuss This
Author: omphale23
Pairing: F/K
Rating: PG-13
Length: 2470 words
Why I'm reccing this fic: It's a dense, complicated fic that rewards re-reading, but still manages to feel spare and tight rather than florid or overwritten. She weaves in song lyrics and film dialogue (excellent 'guess that line' material), and often ( Read more... )

Title: Learn to Speak Canine in Seven Easy Steps
Author: etcetera_cat
Pairing F/K
Rating: PG-13
Length 7000 words
Why I'm reccing this fic: Dief's POV on Fraser and RayK's cluelessness about each other. Etcetera-cat definitely needed a rec here, because this is her first Due South story. It is absolutely hilarious and wonderful - and has one of the best ( Read more... )

Title: Finding the Words
Authors: bertybertle
Pairing: F/K
Rating: NC-17
Length: 154 K
Why I'm reccing this fic: Because it's wonderfully written, heartbreaking and realistic - all of this could happen. It just got to me from the get-go.

Title: A Smile Is Worth a Thousand Words
Author:Pir8fancier
Pairing F/K
Rating: R?

Why I'm reccing this fic: Phone sex. Truth or Dare. Pretty much all dialogue and she has the voices spot on. And, oh yes, we need to encourage her to write more!

Title: Practical Diplomacy
Author: mrsronweasley
Pairing: K/F
Rating: NC-17
Length: 14,000 words

Why I'm reccing this fic: I'm a sucker for academic AUs, and this reads right--both as a retelling of the characters, and as a fictional description of academia. Plus, I love the dead!Bob moments. The idea of Ray as a successful professor, complete with side ( Read more... )

Title: Wrong/Crazy
Author: capella_fic
Pairing Ray/Ray
Rating: R/NC-17
Length short
Why I'm reccing this fic: I am absolutely in love with capella_fic's writing, and this series of Ray/Ray fics in particular. For someone who claims to have an F/K OTP issue, her Ray/Ray is just awesome. It's hot, and they are so THEM, and, god, these two fics include a little bit of ( Read more... )

Title: Paint By Numbers
Author: by mrsronweasley
Pairing Fraser/Kowalski
Rating: G
Why I'm reccing this fic: I think she really captures what could be a scene out of the show. It's Fraser, shot, and Ray in the hospital, waiting to find out if he's okay. Liz takes what could easily be an over-the-top, overly emotional scene, and keeps it very firmly in character ( Read more... )

Title: Severely Provoked
Author: kalpurna
Pairing Fraser/Kowalski
Rating: NC-17
Length tiny but awesome!
Why I'm reccing this fic: This was an entry in stop_drop_porn a few months back, and I was just completely bowled over by it. It packs a huge punch with so few words, and it's one that I reread all the time. This is everything a good PWP should be: ridiculous hot ( Read more... )
