Your picks for everything fannish

1) Five Things Giles Regretted and One He Didn't by shapinglight. Great set of drabbles, all tied to the events in Chosen. Insightful, sad, and very fitting. ( Read more... )

My problem is that out of my fic-reading-time-pie the biggest slices are S/X, which leaves a lot smaller slices for everything else.

I’m glad I came across it as a WIP because taking on a long story can be a hard thing to squeeze into a busy schedule. But as soon as I read it, I was eagerly awaiting the updates to this as they spilled out.
