HP Smutfic Survey Results!
Aug. 15th, 2005 02:19 pmWhat the HP Fandom Wanks To
The results have been tabulated! Before you proceed to the fics, go make sure you've stocked up on batteries, and maybe some snacks too -- must keep up your strength. ;-)
A few weeks ago, I asked people to rec me their top five short smut fics, the ones that send them running for their vibrators time and again. This is what they gave me.
Notes:
- 83 people nominated a total of 236 fics by 139 authors . (Not all of the fics qualified.)
- I decided to accept fics up to 6000 words in length, since many submissions were just over 5000 words. As the goal was to celebrate the best short smut fics, I didn't count anything longer than that. However, non-qualifying fics less than 10,000 words are listed here as Honorable Mention nominees.
- I made a concerted effort to find all fics that links weren't provided for (or for which the links were broken). In a few cases, I just couldn't find them.
- I didn't count people nominating their own fic. Sorry, guys!
- I used Firefox's word count extension to get word counts on these fics (get it here) . When the authors gave word counts, I took their word for it.
- Whenever fics were password-protected, I noted it and provided a link to the log in page. Several people nominated fics I knew were password-protected and gave me direct links. In those cases, I give a different link here. If any authors would like me to provide a different link to their fic, please comment to let me know. (Same goes for if I got any details wrong.)
- There were a few cases in which fics were password protected on sites and I could not manage to get access to them within the week I was tallying the results. Those fics were, unfortunately, left out.
- This survey was clearly very H/D-centric, so I'm making no claims about its validity. Still, there are lots of great fics listed here.
- In the end, I decided to list all the qualifying fics that were nominated, because hey -- the more smut, the better!
The Authors
The work of 139 different authors was nominated, but there were several authors whose names kept coming up over and over. These are the people whose work is recognized by the fandom as being particularly good smut, fic after fic. Go heap praise on them!
Anj (
Amanuensis (
Aspen (
Olivia Lupin (
Marks (
Erm... Me, 4 fics nominated. (But this may just be because it was my survey and people were being nice! :-P)
The Fics
Authors, if you have a correction or a different link you'd rather I use, please leave a comment.
I'm not including any warnings here (and in some cases the pairing isn't indicated), so be sure to read the headers when you click. These fics may contain chan, incest, bestiality, violence, death, spoilers, or ::gasp:: het, so proceed with whatever level of caution is appropriate to you. PLEASE let the authors know how much you loved their fic --give them feedback! Even on Skyehawke. ;-)
(#) number in parentheses indicates number of nominations the fic received.
* asterisk indicates that the fic is password-protected. You will need to register with the site to access it.
