Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?

This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

Are you entirely sure that it's not some AI writing this? Taking random sentences from millions of other fics and substituting names?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Let's say a goil was newly in love with BSG. And let's say a goil was newly in love with starbuck, in an oh-she-needs-a-good-woman way. Where would said purely hypothetical girl find the purely hypothetical fic?

Amych, I'd look first at Crack_Van. The BSG recs there have been surprisingly reliable. Of the ficcers recc'd there, my favorite Starbuck writer by far is Sangga. I think her stuff is mostly Starbuck/Apollo though. I haven't seen much femslash in the fandom.

Thrive to spite them

I've been watching Starsky and Hutch and I really like it. But I'm trying to find more fanfic. I've read all the recommendations on PolyRecs, is there anywhere else that has good recs or any other authors I should look up.

Crack Van does Starsky and Hutch sometimes.

I do love Crack_Van. Granted, the recs can be of variable quality depending on who's doing the reccin'g that month (I still remember that one month when someone recc'd all kind of Jack/Daniel badfic for SG-1; Oy), but it's such a helpful resource when there is a good mix of different kinds of fic. The new BSG section seems particularly nicely balanced between what appears to be the two major pairings in the fandom (Starbuck/Apollo and Roslin/Apollo), with generous sprinklings of good gen, vignettes, and minor-character fic. Haven't seen much slash there yet--it's actually one fandom where I think there is much more potential for some excellent femslash rather than m/m.
