[ETA authors] There are OMG 80 original works in the Trick or Treat Exchange this year (so far - the collection stays open until author reveals indefinitely)! Here are my favorites, which tend to humor rather than horror, but often include both:

Femslashex authors have been revealed, so I can point to the two stories I wrote!

First, I wrote a f!Hawke/Isabela/Merrill (Dragon Age II) fic for

I thought reveals were this morning, but they're this evening for me, so here, have a couple of recs for original works. A lot of the original works are lovely, including much of the art in that category, but these two stories particularly impressed me and I wanted to bring them to the attention of a wider audience. [ETA the author names]

It's been two weeks - I was on vacation last week with no internet to speak of - so today's update is rather long. Also I'm including some fanfiction in here, mostly from the Fandom 5K fest.

What I've recently finished reading:

( A Fire Upon the Deep by Vernor Vinge - old school sci-fi )

What I've recently finished reading: Er, I haven't actually finished anything recently. Which is a bit embarrassing because it's been two weeks since my last books post.

I epubified the sequel to the original M/M book I wrote about last post and put it on Mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/download/b8miarnyv8vzbnm/The_Road_Home_-_Kastor_2.epub for those of you who'd like the e-reader format.

What I just finished reading: Kastor Chronicles 1: The Forge of Dawn which is original M/M by Jesse Hajicek (I read his The God Eaters years back, and remember liking it) I found via the recs list I pointed to yesterday. It's quest fantasy, interesting though not super-original world-building, but it's well-written (except for an unfortunate ( Read more... )

A third set of recs, including stories in both the main collection and Madness. Again, many of these can be read without specific canon knowledge; maybe it's because I'm relatively fandomless right now, but the stories I'm liking the best are the ones which are cut from whole cloth and do something remarkably creative.
