Totally agree! I really enjoy reading people's reactions to stories--what they thought, what they liked, what worked for them. It doesn't matter when the story orignally posted, IMO.
I didn't start posting here or reading fanfic till about 2013--I LOVED the show as it was originally airing, taped every episode, bought the DVD's, but because I didn't have such regular internet availability, had always enjoyed the show just as it was...the show.
I've read a TON of fanfic over the last few years--here and on the Archive, but I know in some ways I've only grazed the surface.
Hearing what you (PuffyTiger) or anyone is currently enjoying, will probably lead me to new authors, and new, different--wonderful--stories
...
Go for it
