Fandom: The X-FILES
Pairing: None overtly, but there are slashy vibes
Author on LJ: sherrold
Author Website: Confessions of a Fannish Butterfly

Why this must be read:
Squeaking this last rec under the wire--This is one of my all-time favorite Scully POV stories, and Sandy's Scully voice is perfect to my ear. I like the understated way Sandy reveals the emotional currents lurking below the professional facades that are so firmly in place.

Thank you for the recs! Some of them are my long-time favorites, some I`ve read for the first time, and I found Josan`s site through your link. Thanks!

Oh, glad to know I turned someone on to a "new" author. Josan was one of the first to get me to read X-Files, mainly because I like the Skinner stories best. ;)

Wow -- I can't tell you how surprised (and pleased) I am to see this. Thanks so much; it really made my day to hear that someone really 'got' and enjoyed this story!

I am glad you saw the rec--I never did cross post them in my LJ like I normally do.

Very interesting. Very, very interesting. I don't usually read XF slash (or implied slash), but as you said, the Scully voice is just perfect. And there are so many stories about Mulder and Scully going to conferences that it's very refreshing to read about Scully and Skinner for a change. Thanks.

I don't have a lot of gen or het recs in my LJ for X-F, and I am primarily a slasher, but if you check my LJ memories, there are some in other fandoms.
