Sticky Post for the Self-Pimping Rec list

[marguerite_26]

I am a little lame and idealistic. But I hope people will participate in this anyway because I want to read your fics but I want you to make it easy on me.

A Self-Pimping Rec List

bryoneybrynn wrote a post early this week welcoming people to name artists and writers they love who have not ‘made it big’. These are the wonderful people of fandom that toil to create quality fic and art but are not always the first people to get the awards, to get on the top of rec lists, you know who I mean.

These are the people in fandom that need an extra little pat on the back because the HP fandom is huge and many talented people get loved by a devoted few but passed-by by many simply because their name is not recognized.

The comments in that post are an amazing collection of such talent. I have poked around at a few new names and found a few fics lists but frankly it is not easy to figure out where to start. This got me thinking!

I would like to invite any writer or artist (whether they are named in the comments byroney’s post or not) to pimp themselves here.

Ideally I would like to see the following:
- Your username
- 2 fics/works of art (your most popular and your personal favourite)
- Please include proper links, with pairings, ratings and any warnings (summaries if you wish).

I really hope people will not be shy and will add their names so we call discover a few authors/artists that are new to us. I would like to see links from people who have only one or two stories (art) and people who already have quite and archive (even if you are already considered 'well-read' I would love to know which fic is your personal favourite!)

Ok, based on # of comments, the most popular is The Exhibitionists (http://nolagal.livejournal.com/10825.html) As/s, NC-17
Summary: Albus and Scorpius like an audience and ensure that everyone stumbles upon them.

My favorite is a tough one. I think the most fun to write was A Job Well Done (http://nolagal.livejournal.com/4558.html) It's As/S told from Ron's POV, PG-13, Ron's nephew has been moping around after a break-up, his best friend Scorpius comes to stay and Ron plans a way for both of them to be happy. Written for ass_carnival silly, un-beta'ed, and in need of some editing.
I am cheating and adding my favorite smut too. Detention (http://nolagal.livejournal.com/13511.html) Albus/Draco, drabble. Albus was prepared for detention but Draco wasn't prepared for Albus.
Warning: crossgen, underage (17), very slight breathplay, orgasm delay, Un-beta'd,
