Real life has been...a bit problematic, lately. The most pertinent problem being that it won't be possible for me to go to school in Milwaukee this coming year; instead I'll be stuck in Madison, working as a grocery store cashier and hopefully taking some classes at the Technical College. At least I like the city well enough, so it shouldn't be an unbearable delay.
In happier news, my sister requested--completely out of the blue, since I had no idea she was interested in slash beyond reading the occasional story of mine--some recommendations for Harry Potter stories to read while she's home for Spring Break. She was rather demanding about it, too; specifically: no incest, no Snape, no cross-generational pairings except for Sirius/Harry (to which I can only say WTF? this is the one cross-gen pairing that doesn't give her the heebie-jeebies, Harry and his godfather?), and preferably a lot of Harry/Draco, Sirius/Remus, and Sirius/anyone-who-isn't-Snape-or-a-kid-besides-Harry.
So I gave her the link to my ETA: now defunct recs page and threw together a much longer list of ( stories fitting her criteria (now organized by pairing) )
There ended up being a disproportionate number of Sirius/Remus stories; apparently my obsession with the pairing has driven the memory of the numerous Harry/Draco stories I've read out of my head. Also, James/Sirius and Sirius/Harry stories are entirely too difficult to find. I doubt my sister will want any additional recs, but anyone who wanted to share links to stories for either of those pairings (or James/Remus or Remus/Harry; they're good, too) would make me very happy.
