...quick post to do something that I've been thinking about for a while.

Call for new fandoms!

I'm looking to expand my reccing repertoire to new horizons.  Only problem is, I don't know where to start and I'm hoping ya'll can help.

What I need from you: fandom suggestions!  Let me know what fandoms you would like me to rec, along with a story to get me started.  Keep in mind, however, that if I don't like the fic, you'll probably sour me on the fandom, so you'll probably want to go with your safest bet (long, first time, not too dark (no non-con), and happy ending).  For comparison purposes, I started reading The Sentinel because someone suggested I read Out of Whack, which is pure fluff.  I've read a lot of dark!fic in that fandom since, but I probably wouldn't have given the fandom a try if that had been the first thing I'd read.  Now, of course, it's one of my top three fandoms of all time (and I *still* haven't seen any of the canon yet).

Also...

Call for community improvement suggestions!

It's hard to believe, but the number of recs on this community is approaching triple digits.  While that's all well and good for reading purposes, it means any future modifications of the community are going to be very difficult to do, so I'm taking this opportunity to make one last effort to spiff this place up.  Do you want more tags (maybe pairings and/or authors)?  Would you like to see more information in the rec headers?  What about how the memories are arranged?  Heck, while we're at it, what do you think of the colors and/or layout?  If you want to see any changes, now's the time to let me know -- after next week what you see is what's here to stay.

Back with more recs on Monday...
