Everything I've got is on PolyRecs.
You should also try Victoria's recs. Her site is unfitforsociety.net, and I think the more recent recs go in an LJ of the same name (unfitforsociety).

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.

Warnings: 1) The 'verse is technically a WIP, but I think that the stories stand on their own, sort of. Do not let an aversion to WIPs stop you! and 2) They have a sort-of problem with their image server that seems to have never really gotten resolved, so some in-story pictures might be missing. I haven't re-read any in a long time, though, so I'm not sure.

Why do people diss the story when they send feedback?
And I don't mean critical feedback, I mean "usually I prefer stories with beginnings and ends and not just middles, but I liked this".
W.T.F.?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Er.
...
...nope, I got nuthin'. Except "People = Teh Stoopid", which I realise is a most ungrateful response to feedback, and yet...it's from the heart.

And I don't mean critical feedback, I mean "usually I prefer stories with beginnings and ends and not just middles, but I liked this".
There's "hey, you made me like something I normally don't, and that's kind of cool!" feedback, and then there's, "hey, I'm going to be kind of a douchebag right now, just because I can!" feedback.
Sorry you got the latter, Consuela.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yeah, I kinda had to stop and make sure I've left the former, and that it wasn't the latter. 'Cause I say, "You made me like stuff I usually don't read or like" a lot, and I've meant it as a compliment.

I take it as a compliment when I get feedback like "I don't normally read Character X/Pairing Y/Fandom Z, but I like this!"
But I've received feedback like, "Hey, you spelled the character names correctly and maintained a consistent POV!" And I don't know exactly how to respond to that sort of thing.
