Fic Rec Meme

I just upgraded to WordPress 3.0, and it went mostly smoothly, but the main template for Ghostly has to be fixed. So, while I get that fixed, here’s my version of the self-reccing meme, which I snagged from Jadelennox.

“Post, in your journal, a rec list singling out the best of your own fics. Tell people why you are especially proud of those particular fics, and of course provide links to them. Yes, that’s right, this step involves self-promotion. How else are people supposed to find your fics? List as many or as few as you feel appropriate to represent your body of writing.

Also include a paragraph about the types of fics you most enjoy reading or are most interested in reading in the immediate future — favorite tropes, pairings, fandoms, whatever. If you’re particularly lazy, link to that Dear Writer post you did for whatever holiday exchange comes to mind.

Reply to other rec posts (like for example the one you are reading now) by reccing a fic of your own that might fit the original poster’s tastes, or that you’d just really like them to read, because maybe they don’t know they’d like it.”

Okay, mine are not perfect, but here’s a list of the ones I think of when I am trying to promote my fic. There’s quite a few of them (I’m a tad… prolific?), and I mention a lot of OC-heavy fics.
