Sorry if you've answered this before but your jaytim fanartist recs were ON POINT so I gotta ask, what jaytim fanfic authors do you recommend?
No worries! I love having an excuse to shout out my fellow jaytim creators o7
To be so fr a great place to see what jaytim authors/fics I like is in my bookmarks on ao3 LMAO chances are good that if I liked a fic or an author in general, then I've bookmarked at least one of their fics. I have (checks watch) 134 jaytim fics bookmarked as of today, and I usually type a quick note about either what the fic was about or how I felt about it upon finishing it in the bookmark comments. I believe in the bookmark function, it's been my best friend since 2013 🙂↕️
That being said, here is another incomplete list of authors I know I love off the top of my head:
Maudlyn - I LOVE pretty much everything they wrote for jaytim week this year! They strike a great balance between serious and comedic tones, really fun stuff!
wickedsmille - I have loved their stuff since before jaytim week 2024, their Jason is SO FUCKING GOOD, just funny and sharp and a hot hot mess. And Tim isn't fooling anyone either lmao, I love wicked's writing!
bavariansugarcookie - their writing is so fun and tongue in cheek, and I love the way they write Tim and Jason. It's like they checked every one of my personal boxes with sharpshooter accuracy, it's crazy
retinanebula - their trans Tim is fucking phenomenal. SO hot, and so sharp around the edges OwO I was following their identity shenanigan via dating app fic as it was coming out Avidly, it's so good
paprikadotmp4 - PAPRIKAAAA I keep saying this, but this is the ship in a nutshell so when I say they write tim and jason with edges so sharp they could cut a man, know that I love everything about it omg
anonymous - i know not who you are, and yet my soul cries out for you(r jaytim fics). I've linked the series of this anon's jaytim fics because holy hot damn are they good. Great characterization, really tasty protective violence, unga bunga. Instant faves
saltwateroracle - saltwater once wrote a sex pollen jaytim fic so beautiful i started crying? no but for real, their stuff is so sharp and raw and good. Ungh. Delicious food
trespresh - their primal play series a) made me insane and b) taught me that there was a word for that. a frequent reread for me ngl
yasmindifference - I would be remiss not to include the man the myth the legend, yasmin fjdsla what can I say that has not BEEN KNOWN, I'm sure we are all aware of their work already because it's Damn Good, but it was Foundational for me when I was first getting into this ship. If you read my first ever jaytim fic, there are shades of yasmin, noctiphany, sister, and the one and only jaytim fic spqr wrote ALL over that sucker lmao
I am missing A LOT of people on this list fjdlskaj Seriously just go into my bookmarks on ao3, some of them are silly, some of them are pretty much just smut, but there's a lot of bangers to be found 🎉
