Fan fiction questions from a newbie

[Sarah Bennet]

Hello!

This is my first post since I joined HP4GU last month.  I've been 
catching up on the archives and just enjoying the quality of 
discussions posted here.  I was so excited to find this forum of 
adults who enjoy analyzing every last detail of HP as much as I do!  
And it has introduced ideas that hadn't come to me on my own.  (Snape 
as a vampire? - I'm beginning to see those possibilities.)  Anyways, 
I've enjoyed this group so far, and am looking forward to becoming a 
more active member. 

My question is regarding fan ficton - I thought this would be more 
appropriate for OTChatter than HP4GU.  I have read a number of posts 
that refer to fanfic, whether authored by members or not.  And I have 
read through some of the fanfic recommended in the Files section of 
this group.  But as I am becoming more familiar with 
www.fanfiction.net, I wanted to ask for additional recommendations. 

So, could you please advise me as to which fanfics you prefer, or are 
your favorites?  I'm not looking for any particular style, just a 
good sampling of what's out there.  I'd appreciate any 
recommendations!  Thanks!

Sarah
