Recommend a Recommender

Where do you go for fanwork recs?

Naming this community is cheating. :P

But another DW community or journal, a website, a tumblr, and AO3 or Pinboard bookmarker, or anywhere else you go to find good fanwork recommendations is great!

Here's one from me:
Polyamorous Recs by shrift and nestra has been going as long as I've been in fandom, and is still updating with good recs! It is *not* only poly fic - it's been going long enough that it predates polyamory being in common usage, so they use it to mean that they, the reccers, love a great many different fandoms and pairings instead of being monogamously devoted to only one. :D There will probably be something there you will like!

For visual art, [community profile] fanart_recs is an active multifannish comm where folks can sign up to post recs in any fandom for a month at a time.

Ooh, subscribing to that. I so rarely see people doing multiformat recs.

Also, though I already mentioned it in a previous post, [community profile] buffyversetop5 doesn't re-open until October but it has 13 years' worth of recs in it to browse through or search.

Although it's not very active now, [community profile] recs has a lot of content there as well (and I do post to it regularly).
