My first Qaf fic was one on the "Across the pond" site and it wasn't very good and i stopped and tried Bedeviled's A love that will never grow old and loved it. She had linked her LJ which led me to all the LJ about QAF and of course QAF_retread. It took me 6 months but i read every rec posted except Reaper boy (I'll get to it someday, i swear ;))
