Hi! Good to see someone taking a turn at the wheel for UNCLE. It can seem like a daunting task, but you might want to check the past recs ... you can do this by going through the tags for UNCLE (tags are listed on the main page on the left side), although they only list 50 recs per page so you do have to keep paging back, or check the Memorable entries for the fandom:
These were kept up until they went to the tag system in Spring 2008. What I've found the easiest thing is just to run a "find" through the memorable entries for the title and the author - this gives me an idea if they've been rec'ced before and if the fic has been rec'ced before - then check the tags for the time period after they stopped doing the memories. Don't worry about it, though. Even with checking, I've been caught rec'cing things that have already been rec'ced. Happens to everyone.
Looking forward to more story suggestions, and if any of what I've said isn't clear, just ask. It's not meant as criticism, just help.
