All of these sites are quite good, but there are some that are a definite "must visit" and rank among my favorite sites. I've separated these sites out into "recommended" categories. Sites are added to this list as I come across them. I pick sites because of the enjoyment or informational factor. If I link to you, I don't expect a link back, though one would be appreciated. The same is true of the reverse -- I do not always provide a link-back to sites that link to me.

D'Alaire Incredibly richly plotted and drawn A/U stories. Prepare for long and satisfying readss. Recommendations: "The Word Painter" and "Guerdon".

Jemima's Trek Jemima is an incredibly clever and witty writer, able to zing little epiphanies at the reader. "The Museum" is excellent but "The Lamne'rau" and "The Dance" are my personal favorites.

Leslie's Library Leslie Sholly's "X-Files" fanfic. Some of the most beautifully drawn, character-driven fanfic I've read in a while. Start with "Actof Contrition," but they are all wonderful.

RJ Anderson RJ skillfully spans Harry Potter, Trek and Dr. Who, but it's her X-Files fics that I admire greatly. She writes Mulder and Scully ith an unerring eye and gets the details exactly right. May I suggest "Possessions"?

Rocky's Road to Voyager Rocky has a handle on Janeway like no one else. Her fic is incredibly detailed with some of the best characterizations of the Janeway/Chakotay relationship I've seen on the web, but she's also written fic in other Trekdoms as well. I highly recommend the "Homeward Bound Series" and "Five Things That Never Happened to Kira Nerys."

Yahtzee's Fic Yahtzee is one of those rare and compelling writers who manages to not only write stories that make sense and stay true to character, but are infused with a great emotional quality that makes it impossible not to feel something by the time you reach 'the end'. "Given Up" is one of my favorites.
