In light of recent discussions regarding feedback and my failings therein (not that my particular failings were the point): To anyone who's sent feedback to me to which I never responded, I apologize. I have a reason that's not an excuse: Two changes of email address (one very recent) that involved moving/RL stuff, and an ignorance about how to change my email address on old stories in archives. The only thing close to being an excuse is I assumed very few people would be reading my stuff in recent years since it's old, so I didn't think updating my email address was urgent.
I don't suppose there's a mass of irritated readers out there, but if even one person sent me feedback in the last ... well, couple of years, really, and it bounced or disappeared into silence - that's why, and I apologize.

(Any good online K/S first-time recs??? Pretty please?)

You know, I'm not sure why K/S has never gained a large presence on the net, especially on LJ. There's some, but most of the established writers still send their stories to zines. And even the not-so-established. Though I post MFU and Pros stories to the net, all my K/S stories go to zines. Maybe because there's still several K/S publishers, a lot of net writers eventually work their way over to zines, too.

Two who have been online for years and are still two of the best are Killa and Jane St. Clair, though neither have written any new K/S in years. All their stories are good but Killa's Turning Point and Full Circle have probably turned on more people to K/S than any other stories.

The only thing I'll say about Jane's is that it's best to read them in order.

Then there's always the archive, where many zine writers are posting their work once they time out.

You can't go wrong with Jenna Hilary Sinclair's work, especially The World Turned Upside Down and Pacing the Cage. CatalenaMara's A Private Obsession is also a favorite. So is UKJess's Strong Together.
Hope that helps. :-)
