Ok who has Yuletide recs, especially for things where you don’t need canon knowledge or canon is v brief? I’m still making my way through the fandoms I do know but AO3 seems to be down

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Not Yuletide, but I have been enjoying re-reading fic by Diane Castle. A good place to start is: [link]

AO3 is up again.

On a whim, I went browsing through my subscriptions on AO3, and came across a series by copperbadge I hadn't read, The Izzy Chronicles [link]

Clint Barton as a single parent. Fun, and funny.

Thrive to spite them

Ohh the Izzy Chronicles are so much fun

Always Anti-fascist!

I'm getting a lot of attention for some fic I wrote, like, 10 years ago. Maybe there's not very much Mary and Rhoda fic and people want it? Because since it's MMOM, I've gotten one or two kudos every May since, but that doesn't account for summer love in July and August. I'm pretty impressed that I can write Phyllis, though. [link]

Brava, erikaj. I am always mildly amused at kudos for things I wrote 15 years ago in a fandom nobody pays attention to anymore. I assume there was some random Tumblr recommendation, maybe?

Maybe. Somebody told their friends, somehow. And I think, for a lot of women, Phyllis, with that combination of high-flown bitchiness and insecurity, is something of a sitcom version of a Jungian shadow.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Yes, it’s like how every now and then I get a random kudo for a Farscape fic I wrote back when it was still on the air. I mean, it’s nice, but what paths brought you to my door, oh dear reader?
