apocalypsosConsider this an opportunity to pat yourself on the back. Let's call it free advertisement.
Rec me (and the rest of this friends list) the fanfic you've written that you love the most. It doesn't have to be the best thing you've ever written, or the funniest, or the saddest. Just the one you're proudest of, whether it's as a guilty pleasure or as a show of just how talented you can be. ('Cause I've read your stuff and I know how many of you are really, really good.)
If people could only read one fic that you'd written, which one would you make them read?
(Feel free to pimp this post, too. 'Cause I think it'd be fun to have a nice, long list of stories people would love you to read, as chosen by the authors.)
My choice would be -- An Ordinary Boy ... Buffy/Angel crossover, of a sort.
Summary -- What if the question of Connor and Holtz's disappearance into that portal had ended somewhat differently?
Why I love this story -- 'Cause the twist ... oh, how I wished they'd done something like this on the shows. They couldn't have, of course, not at that point in these shows, but still. Just like it says in the author's note, a co-worker and I started discussing the possibility at work one night, and suddenly realized how incredibly cool it would have been, and frighteningly enough, it could have worked.
Okay, your turn. :)
EDIT: You know what other story I really should have mentioned that I totally forgot to when I first posted this? The Xavier Mansion Diaries. That story was oh so hard to write, but a total blast, too.

Date: 2004-05-04 08:00 am (UTC)Summary: Being a teacher at Xavier's School for the Gifted has never been easy. Scott hopes he's doing it right.
Why I love this story: Because it was neat getting to play with the parallels between Scott's years as a student and his present job as a teacher, and because this is a lot of what I think about why Scott is the person he is. (And also because writing Magneto as one of Scott's teachers was just so much fun.)
