Today's Special, and writing update

A Lesson in Breaking (HP/SS, DM/SS, NC-17) by fleshdress Warning: dub-con bordering on non-con.
I'm not going to say anything about this fic or else I might spoil it, but if you like your snarry with a dose of dub-con and a brutal, unforgiving Snape, go read this.

The Cure (HP/SS, PG-13) by dracofiend
A lovely, light post-war fic, with a nice slow build of the relationship between Snape and Harry. Lots of humor, too. Wonderful fic.

Caribbean Cartography (Norrington/Sparrow, R) by cupiscent I don't read a lot of Pirates of the Caribbean fic, but fluffyllama recced it yesterday, so I gave it a try. I'm glad I did, because this fic is the best Norrington/Sparrow story I've read to date. Both Norrington's and Sparrow's voices are so good, and there's lots of plot, and lots of subtle humor, and lots of little details about life in the Caribbean that make this fic so damned plausible. If you've ever been curious about this pairing, try this story. Trust me. ;-)


On writing news: I'm busy with my entry for snarry_games. I started with one idea, wrote a bit for it, then discarded it since it wasn't going anywhere. I got a new idea, sat on that for a while until it finally clicked in my mind, and I've been writing it ever since. It feels good so far, and it will be longish.

It's nice to be writing something again. RL has kept me too busy over the last few months, but now I feel like I can again devote some time and energy on writing. A very good thing, because I have much I'd like to write. Besides this Snape/Harry fic, I want to write more on my Harry/Voldemort WIP, I want to write another story for my Harry, Edward (HP/AB crossover) series, and I want to write for the challenges I claimed for crossover_hp. But Snarry first, because OMG deadline!
