I just feel the need to say that I literally don't know if I can ever read another Watchmen fic again because of how DAMN GOOD your Rorschach/Nite Owl II is. I'd always avoided the fic because I would be scared it'd be done badly, but someone pointed me in the direction of Empire and I was hooked. You write the characters so well and you're such a good writer that it scares me. And makes me insanely jealous, lol. ;]

I seriously don't know if I can read any again. My expectations are way, WAY too high.

I don't suppose you have any recommendations, do you...?

Either way. WELL DONE.

Ahh, recommendations. I'm almost afraid to give them because I'm too afraid I'd leave something awesome out. That's the real reason why I never do rec posts (well, that and I am an unorganized sort of person who does not keep bookmarks of fics she likes, no matter how much she likes them).

Off the top of my head:

In general, newfrontiersmen seems to be the place to go for good fic and art now that the fandom is all post-movie and flooded with Mary Sues.

I absolutely loved Ordinary World and Empire, haven't read your others yet - I'm saving them for later. :) You write so well, very poetic and in canon without the actions of the characters being limited. Unfortunately, your awesome work has ruined all other fics for me since surely yours are one of the best if not the best in the Watchmen fandom.

Awww, thanks!

(There is some amazing stuff out there.)

You're one of the most amazing writer's I've ever read. I'm just here to tell much how much I love your writing.

Wanted to let you know that I recced Ordinary World - it blew me away.

[i_am_your_spy]

Thank you! *grins madly*

Ordinary world, Exiles and Empire are the reason I didnt get anything done today. :)

They are utterly captivating, drew me right in. This wonderful fragile prose you have written them in only serve to highlight the grace and tragedy of it all. The ending was perfect in tone and execution- right true to the feel of it all, that there will be a long hard road ahead of them.

The scene the Exiles open with? was beautifully raw and completely, them.

Thank you! I like to think that I was put on this earth to diminish everyone's productivity.
