Is this thing on?
My story, in brief: I’ve been in various fandoms for… 15 years? More? and used to write primarily HP fanfiction under the name Granger (or ali_granger), although I have dabbled in other fandoms over the years. I fell in love with BBC Sherlock when the first season aired in the…
Well, I think that’s fair. I’m not entirely sure about this whole ‘Tumblr’ thing myself. It seems like internet dubiousness to me. I’m just on here because it feels less ridiculous when I vent on Tumblr compared to LJ.
Oh man, but ALLOW ME TO REC YOU SOME RECS. If you want some great readings, hit up bendingsignpost, fizzygins, ivyblossom, belovedmuerto, random-nexus, moonblossom, thisprettywren, and roane72.
Ben, Random, and Wren have writing LJs under the same names they use on Tumblr. You can also find all the aforementioned magnificent ladies and gents on archiveofourown.org (also known as AO3), mostly under the same names. Fizzygins goes by greywash over there. Roane72 is simply roane.
If you like brainy, twisted dark stuff, also hunt up lindentreeisle on AO3 (who sometimes also goes by captainblue), and deuxexmachina, who has some fic on her LJ and some on AO3.
There is so much more—this isn’t even a comprehensive list of the not-to-be-missed, it’s just the ones I thought of off the top of my head who’re on Tumblr—but it’s a pretty good place to start!
Man, you’re in for some good times. There’s some amazing stuff in this fandom, and we’re only on season 2!
