Duly noted, but the reason there have been so many for AlxSteele lately is because I have been posting recs for each fic in their 31-part series. I wanted to post all of them relatively close to each other so I was sure that I didn’t forget any of them. Three of the parts will be posted today, as they are all extremely interconnected with each other, but typically there has only been one posted per day alongside one or two one-shots from other authors.
I queued it this way (all the way to May 24th) to give myself a bit of breathing room, as far as reading and reccing fics goes. Both tasks are a lot of fun – as is everything that goes into running this blog – but all of it takes a great deal of time. Keep in mind that I just wrapped up my last semester of graduate school (classes and work as a teaching assistant and everything that entailed) and now have to finish my thesis within the next few weeks, so my focus is currently on that – and rightfully so, I believe. I didn’t want to go on hiatus, because I know first-hand how frustrating that can be for people visiting the blog, but some concessions needed to be made in order for that to happen if I wanted to be successful in my own work.
If you can hold out until the end of May, I promise there will be more of a variety, but until then the majority of recs will be the remainder of this series and one-shots. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I need to take the time to concentrate on what will help determine my future.
