Hi everyone!
I know that people regularly request recc's for long, well-written stories, but they're usually asking for classics and the same favourite authors and titles come up. I've read all of these again and again, and I'm craving something new ...

What I'm looking for are new(ish) multi-chaptered fics that maybe aren't often recc'd but that you think are worth the read. I'm not bothered about subject matter as long as the plot's interesting and the characters are well-drawn - AU's are fine, but please no MPREGs or death-fics. And while I love possessive, protective Brian I like him to stay canon ... no calling Justin 'baby' or suddenly being up for fathering or adopting a tribe of children. I'd also prefer complete stories or at least WIP's with regular updates.

I post my own stories at Midnight Whispers and Fanfiction, so I've read most of the recent stuff on those sites - I love Turning Points by Strongatheart and Timeless by Cynical, but maybe you know of a story posted somewhere else or a gem I might have missed. Any suggestions would be great ...

Thanks in advance!


Whoo-hoo! Lots of happy reading in comments. Thanks guys!

There's this sakesushimaki guy from Australia, who I hear writes okay fanfics? I guess? :P

How To Hitch A Breeder (http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=sakesushimaki&keyword=QaF%20fic%3A%20%22How%20To%3A%20Hitch%20a%20Breeder%22&filter=all) by sakesushimaki is amazing, totally IC and hot and angsty.

And one of my fabourite fics ever, whose author sadly has left fandom, I think: Truth In Advertising (http://bjfic.livejournal.com/2075115.html). It is hilarious and exciting, IC and just awesome. IT is from 2009, so that's newer than older, I think?

And something a bit shorter, but still at least a solid hour of reading (if you read fast): The Break-up (http://moonbrightnites.livejournal.com/7407.html) by moonbrightnites

I was going to say that I'm presently reading "Bird on a Wire" and it's about the most amazing thing I'd ever read but... oh. HI THERE. You rule. ♥

I've had a couple recently:

The Last Time (http://netfics.livejournal.com/33878.html)

My master fic list is here:

I've actually stopped posting WIPs active or otherwise. I only post once I have completed a story now.

"I've actually stopped posting WIPs active or otherwise. I only post once I have completed a story now."

With that declaration, you've become my idol. Bless you. :-)

UMMMM

which is why I only post completed fics now

I'm working on Turbulence - new chapters will not be posted until it's done.

ETA: "active or otherwise" - Turbulence is "otherwise"
