aishuu and
ninjatrauma are running
recology, a sort of crash course in Methods of Reccing. I haven't joined because uhhhh I dunno. Long recs bore me, I'd much rather see a one-sentence summary and skim the story myself. But hypocritically, I wish more people had joined, because the comments in
the introduction post are full of great rec websites. In particular,
This one. YESSSS OBSCURE YA LIT FANDOMS COME TO MEEEEE. And- good taste! And- a variety of authors! The problem with livejournal-based recs, of course, is that they tend to center around flists, and sometimes the reccer's friendship with (or admiration of) the author eclipses the quality of the story.
Which is why you shouldn't pay any attention to the
Death Note fic rec list I wrote up for
aishuu. *g*
EDIT: Now in
website form.
