So I haven't been around QAF fic land for quite some time, & I was hoping you guys could point me in the direction of any really great must-read newer stories? Any new authors that are just delicious?

Also, I'm looking for fics where B&J are living together with kids & do family things. You know those stories where the author captures B&J home life with kids perfectly?

I know you guys won't let me down! Ya'll are always awesome at fic recs!

Thanks!

Not sure about the B/J with kids fics (not my thing), but as for some awesome "new"-er authors, you MUST check out blissink and ryosato. They're two of my favorites.

Definitely check out these:
One Love - http://blissink.livejournal.com/tag/one+love
What About Now? (WIP) - http://blissink.livejournal.com/tag/what+about+now
All's Fair (WIP) - http://ryosato.livejournal.com/921466.html

And the rest of their fics are amazing as well. Just check out their tags.

Just to show how much I love these fics, I've probably re-read One Love about 10 times and I constantly check LJ for updates on the other two. Both of these writers are good about keeping up with their WIPs. They update regularly. :)

Since you've been gone, you should take a look at the new header and expanded Sidebar, Memories and Tags, courtesy of a fairy godmother who gifted us with a paid account. One thing we ask everyone to do now is use a specific subject line with your post, so if you'd edit your post to be reflective of your search, it'd be much appreciated. If you're unsure what I mean, just scroll backwards through some previous entries. You'll get examples and also see how doing so makes searching faster.

New authors... I don't know how long you've been gone, but one I always recommend is england13's Choices (http://england13.livejournal.com/tag/choices). It's a post-show where J stays in the Pitts and it's excellent. It is a WIP, but I believe she'll finish; she's had computer problems of late, according to her most recent post. Check her one-shots, too.

ladybugkay's Visual Aids (http://ladybugkay.livejournal.com/25550.html). It's not that new, but it was new to me and I thoroughly enjoyed it.

A truly brand-new author just debuted part 1 of her incredibly well-written and v.v. hot fic just a couple of nights ago. Impasto (http://the-minx-17.insanejournal.com/tag/qaf+verse:+impasto), by the_minx_17.

And check out the recent clusterf#ck challenge at qaf_challenges.

Great recommendations so far - I love "What about now" and check for update, like, every hour ;).

B/J with kids, hm, maybe you don't know everything by shadownyc yet?

She is not a new author but she has written a lot lately.

Hi,

Mikiebg has some really great fics where Brian and Justin have kids. It's a series of long fics that spans for years. You should really check them out. And they are also in pdf file.

wow, so this sounds really interesting and i think i wanna give this series a try. i've been to the lj and it's quite extensive lol. and you mentioned a pdf file...could you point me in that direction? thanks much :)

[janes-membrane.livejournal.com]

Her pdf files are listed in her Sept. 14 2009 entry. Also if you check out the site where those pdfs are, there are other pdfs there of hers that weren't listed in her Sept 14, 2009 entry.

[katydid417.livejournal.com]

thank you so much! i was looking around her site and found it quite overwhelming. This really helps

[janes-membrane.livejournal.com]

No problem. I promote Mickiebg's work whenever I could because I truly enjoy her fics.
