Harringrove fic writers to check out in 2024 for folks new to the harringrove fandom
@hargrove-mayfields I will always recommend EJās writing and not just because sheās my best friend lmao. If you want beautiful, poignant harringrove with deals frankly and sensitively with topics like disability and overcoming a difficult past, you have to read EJās fics.
@thatgirlwithasquid Squid puts so much feelings into their writing and it really shows, their fic for the relay race in particular is just perfection.
@shieldofiron Saf is evil and will make you cry but sheās also a wickedly talented writer and someone I have nurtured many aus with. Serrated, Vecnavision and the MDS verse are iconic for a reason.
@dragonflylady77 Even the fics that Guin writes that arenāt poetry flow like poetry and they make me experience A LOT of emotions
@brightside-of-the-upsidedown Harle! Has! Such! A! Gift! And! You! Should! Read! Their! Stuff!
@gracegrove Jess has a real wit which really shines through every word and makes reading very enjoyable
@half-oz-eddie Ivyās writing is insightful, meaningful and deeply compassionate and I love it
@suspiciouslackofclowns thereās just something so healing about their writing and I canāt describe it.
@adelacreations Add has a humongous brain full of different aus and I love every one of them, RE8 with Lord Billy and Harrington is a definite favourite.
@heck-in-a-handbasket I literally do not have words to articulate how much I adore Heckās writing I just read everything over and over again on a loop.
@thissortofsorcery Gabi has this wonderful skill of really understanding characters in microscopic detail and making me cry from reading her fics (especially autistic Billy)
@oopsiedaisiesbaby these fics are just fun to read, Billy and Steveās dynamic is captured perfectly and the smut is top tier.
@writer-in-theory I still think about Greyās fics just at random points during the day and they immediately make me smile.
@chrisbitchtree I have cried MANY times to these fics because theyāre so emotive and beautiful and those are my two main weaknesses ok.
@catharrington Writing like sunshine and I mean that so genuinely.
@bigdumbbambieyes Picking a favourite Bambi fic is like trying to pick a favourite child so Iām afraid youāll just have to read all of Bambiās fics again. And again. And again.
@fizzigigsimmer we all know and adore To B, With Love (which like why wouldnāt you) but honestly Fizzi has like a Midas touch which translates to everything they write
@hephaestn Luās writing is still ethereal and still makes me cry.
@yikesharringrove I am obsessed with a kind of hot mess Steve and yikes does him soooooooo well.
@callieb you will literally be transported away with Callieās fics. I know I was. All of them are beautiful.
@robthegoodfellow Robās fics kind of drive me absolutely feral and that is a very good thing.
@passivenovember I am unhinged and foaming at the mouth and thatās all I have to say.
@edith-moonshadow if you have a soft spot for bottom or omega Steve, this is 100% the writer to turn too. Iām pretty sure Iāve read every fic at least 5 times (and thatās me being generous to myself with my tendency to reread.)
@dacrydacrymani for anyone who has a weakness for clueless the-closet-is-glass Steve or Steve in his Scoops uniform. Slim Pickings, Sailor Omega on AO3 is particularly delicious but I would recommend all of their fics in a heartbeat.
This is (again) by no means a comprehensive list but hopefully this is helpful! Because all these authors are amazing and I know that coming into a new fandom is *intimidating as hell* (I know I just started fanboying with a lot of these Iām not sorry fhfhfhfgfg)
