The Authors

Authors' Websites

        There are a few authors whose work just bowls me over.  Nearly everything I read from them is masterful -- supremely crafted, emotionally evocative, vividly descriptive, always in character.  So, in addition to archiving my favorites of theirs here, I also decided to link to their websites.  Please visit their sites, read their work, send them feedback.

Beduini
Everything I've ever read of Beduini's has affected me in some way.  Drive Thru made me think.  The Scenes series made me see the benefits of taking things slowly.  Her story Hot made me. . . well. . .  Anyway, her writing is vivid and stylish, emotionally evocative.  And best of all, she takes chances in her work.

Char Chaffin
Char became one of my very favorite fic writers the moment over a year ago when I read two of her stories:  French-Kissed and Waiting For My Partner.  They're very different stories -- heck, one is even kidfic -- but both are innocently sexy and sweetly romantic.  Much of her work is more erotically charged, which is always a good thing.

Diana Battis
Though Diana has a special affinity for Mulder, she also writes an incredible Scully.  Her work is always heartfelt and often angsty, frequently with some delicious smut thrown in for good measure.  Her story Caprice is a delightful post-ep for "Je Souhaite," her Interminabilis Vitae series moves me to tears every time I read it, and Eclipse, a collaboration with alanna, is an amazingly plausible look at the 7th season.

Livia Balaban
After I'd chosen four of Livia's stories to feature here, I realized that I loved just about everything of hers that I read.  What I admire most is that she doesn't do anything remotely "typical."  Her post-ep stories usually refer to events in the episodes, but take place at some indeterminate later time, like in partner in all things.  She also has a wicked sense of humor, like in Fox in Stocks.  And she has an incredible ability to think outside the box, like in Agnus Dei.

Marguerite
As with Livia, I realized I absolutely loved just about every story of Marguerite's that I read after I added a fifth story of hers.  What I find so impressive about her writing is the lyrical nature of it, even in her humorous stories.  She chooses just the right words, the right turn of phrase to evoke exactly the emotional response she's looking for -- that takes incredible talent.  In addition to the stories archived here, I'm especially fond of Remotely Controlled, a funny and twisted post-ep for "X-Cops."

ML
Whenever I'm feeling blue or sad, I read one of ML's stories.  That's not to say that all she writes is happy stories -- there are several very angsty ones among her work -- but more often than not, her stories make me smile.  In addition to those archived here, I really like Everybody Knows a Turkey -- big grins for that one.

Susan Frankovich
When I first started reading fanfic, I steadfastly avoided poetry.  Well, that's not entirely true -- I read a few poems that were really badly written, just excuses for flowery words and overt symbolism, so I stopped reading XF poetry altogether.  That is, until I found Susan Frankovich.  Susan's work -- whether poetry, a vignette or a longer story -- never fails to touch me emotionally.  Her Letters to You, a series of post-"Requiem" vignettes, is exquisitely heartrending.
