Fandom Snowflake 2020 #8: Recommended Daily Intake

Challenge #8 asks us to recommend the fanworks of others.

( Let's talk about recs )

So, here are the recommendations that I have for you.

• I use my AO3 bookmarks specifically for recommendations, so there are two dozen possibilities there that you might enjoy across a large swath of possible fandoms.


• I have always enjoyed it when receiving art gifts for exchanges from laughingpineapple, and they also do words works, but of the art gifts I have received for exchanges, they have detailed work and they are worthy of being wallpapers of their own right. As the Wood Is Still, But It Is Certain I Am Loved Of All Ladies, Only You Excepted, and Hold Off The Dreams have been lovely.


• I was recently reminded that a work that takes advantage of metatextual elements is often rather fun to read. Bright Darkness by used_songs joins the cast of Torchwood and some pilgrims on the way to a religious shrine, for example. One of the ones I really enjoyed seeing the metatext work on was Guard Your Eggshell Heart, by AlexSeanchai because once you know what happens, you realize that everything to come to that conclusion was available right from the beginning.

So there are some recommendations for works created by people who are not me. I hope you find them enjoyable.
