My
Recs Page
I
decided to create a page in which I could recomend
those
stories I just *love*.
I
will keep updating this page every time I get a chance to.
I'm
rec'ing fics ranging from gen, het and slash, from PG to NC-17. And if I
were to label them all, I wouldn't have time to do this. So I'm linking
to the author's or archive's main page (unless it's on ff.net). Be sure
to read the stories ratings and warnings first.

Okay...
It's not because she's my best cyber-friend. And not because we're both
Joxer's Angels. And not because we've known each other for over 3
years...... though all those things *do* help ;-P .... But my dear JB is
a VERY talented writer. One *heck* of a
writer. An awesome writer. A simply marvelous writer. All of
her fics are great, her pairings are *so* very unique, and she's written a ton
of fics too! Go. Now. Read. Review. Be awed. Be amazed. Send feedback!

pairing rocks your boat.
