FANFIC AUTHORS' APPRECIATION DAY

As seen in numerous journals

FANFIC AUTHORS' APPRECIATION DAY

March 6 through March 13

Post to your LJ each day at least one of your favorite fanfic authors and why you love them, their work, and why they need more appreciation.

Well, I'll give it a go... My first choice is rozk, a long-time friend, author of some of the most intelligent fics. I've seen, as well as some very slashy slash, and the person who really got me into fanfic - and into Buffy, for that matter. Her characterisation and dialogue are usually faultless, and she deserves to be more widely known than she is.

See, for example, Dawn in Rome and her wonderful Cordyslash series Five Lovers Cordelia Never Had, or the very nasty AU stories Girl 1 and Girl 2

Later note: It's been pointed out that March 6-13 is a week, not a day. About half of the LJ entries I've seen on this have used the "day" version, and I cut and pasted without thinking about it. In practice I suspect that for me this is "an indeterminate period, probably in excess of a day but less than a week, before I lose interest or forget."

Someone can't distinguish between a day and a week.

Yes, about half the posts I've seen on this are saying "day", the rest "week".

I'm going to call it "an indeterminate period, probably in excess of a day but less than a week, before I lose interest or forget."

rozk is one of my favourite fanfic writers too. I find her stories to be full of humour and intelligence.

Roz was going to be my Jossverse author, too. A superb writer, for all the reasons you name.

Don't leave her out just because I picked her - I doubt our friends lists are identical!
