I have a few different rec lists, so here is a handy-dandy post linking you to all of them. Be warned, I am a huge fan of smut and almost all of my recs are rated R or NC-17, so if you are looking for lower-rated fics, this is not the place for you. This is also almost exclusively slash pairings, though every once in awhile a het pairing manages to sneak its way in there.

I also dabble in fanfic writing, so if you're interested, you can find that HERE.

If you are curious about my likes/dislikes/preferences in fic because you want to make me something (or because you're just nosy), you can find those HERE.

Title: When It Happens.
Author: gracerene
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing(s): Dean/Sam
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: ~10,000
Content/Warnings: seasons 3, 6, 7, 11, 14, & 15; alternating POV; 5+1; drunkenness; jealousy; Dean's demon deal; brief soulless Sam; cursed Dean Winchester; (kind of) fuck or die; bondage; begging; s11e17: Red Meat; grief/mourning; mentions of canonical character death; hugging; post-s14e18: Absence; post-s15e19: Inherit the Earth; kitchen sex; chair sex; frottage; mutual masturbation; two hands one dick; finger-sucking; implied switching, self-indulgence
Summary: There have been many moments over the years when Dean and Sam could have acted on their not-so-brotherly feelings for one another, but they've always held back. Until they didn't.

Or:

Five times Dean and Sam don't kiss, and one time they do.

Author's Note: I got the idea for the first scene on this fic while on vacation, and the rest of the fic unfolded from there! My first Wincest fic that includes both POVs and that spans more than one season!

Thanks, as ever, to shiftylinguini for reacting with poise and grace when I told her to expect yet another Wincest fic to beta, and to applecrumbledore for also agreeing to give this a once-over! <3

And SO much love to the incredibly talented artist, Deeranger, who claimed my fic for the Wincest Big Bang 2023 and created such gorgeous images for it! I am still in awe, and you should check out their SFW post on Tumblr and NSFW post on Twitter and give them all the love!

Title: Like a Dog with a Bone
Author: gracerene
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing(s): Dean/Sam
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: ~3,250
Content/Warnings: Season 9; Episode 5: Dog Dean Afternoon, Established Relationship, Puppy Play, Praise Kink, Cuddling, POV Dean, Anal Fingering, Anal Sex, Bottom Dean/Top Sam
Summary: In which the dog communication spell continues to have unexpected side-effects.
Author's Note: This takes place during episode 5 of season 9: Dog Dean Afternoon. Because basically all the puppy play fic for this pairing has completely ignored this fucking gift of an episode, for shame!

Thanks to shiftylinguini for the beta!

Title: There's Fire
Author: gracerene
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing(s): Dean/Sam
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: ~4,703
Content/Warnings: s13e22: Exodus, missing scene, coda, sequel, grinding, intergluteal sex, POV Sam
Summary: Dean wanted them to both forget it had ever happened, but a close call makes him reconsider.
Author's Note: This is a sequel to my fic Where There's Smoke (which takes place mid-season 13 during The Bad Place episode) and this fic occurs during and after episode 22, Exodus. I think this can be read as a standalone, but it heavily references events from that fic and they're really best read in order. :D

Written for smpc

Set vaguely sometime in season 7, with heavy references to the Season 3 episode: Mystery Spot.

It's been ages since I've done a rec round-up and TBH, I'm not even sure if I've posted some of these before, but ehh, double reccing is hardly a bad thing!

( Harry Potter: Drarry )

( Supernatural: Wincest )

I mean, at least I broke 1k? I wasn't surprised this was a low week, since I was editing + starting a new fic which is a bit slow. Plus, I continue to have very limited time/mental capacity for writing, which is very annoying, as is, I'm sure, my continued complaining about it. Alas.

Title: Enough
Author: gracerene
Fandom: Supernatural
Pairing(s): Dean/Sam, mention of Sam/Ruby & Dean/Jamie (bartender from Monster Movie episode)
Rating: Explicit
Word Count: ~4,200
Content/Warnings: post-s4e5: Monster Movie, first time in a long time, loss of virginity (according to Dean), blow jobs, rimming, anal fingering, anal sex, top Sam/bottom Dean, light angst, implied/referenced suicide ideation, pov Sam Winchester
Summary: Things have been… off between them ever since Dean came back from the dead, but maybe they've finally turned a corner.
Author's Note: Happy...3/4 of the way through January, Scissors!! Clearly somebody knew what they were doing when they matched us, because your sign-up felt tailor-made just for me, chock-full of all the things I like best! Your prompts & likes inspired a couple of different possibilities, but in the end I stuck with the classic and undeniable truth of your prompt "That ass of Dean's needs to be worshiped." I tried to sneak in as many of your likes as I could, and took some form of inspiration from pretty much everything you listed. I really hope you enjoy!!

Lots of love to my brilliant beta, shiftylinguini, and to Zxro for hosting this mini gift exchange!

Once again, not as many words as I'd have liked, but they all came from 2 days of writing. I think I may have to come to terms with the fact that my work and life situation has evolved such that I'm now primarily a weekend writer. I'm at my most creatively productive in the mornings, and with a job that actually requires me to work during business hours, it's become difficult for me to get words down during the week. I'm going to try experimenting with structured evening writing sessions to see if that helps, but if not, I think I'll just need to adjust my expectations!

Not a ton of words, but considering these basically all happened in January, I'm happy with the trend! So far I've written every day in 2023 and I'm keen to maintain the trend if I can!

2022 Writing Wrap-Up

This has been my worst writing year in terms of overall word count since I started writing. To give some context, it's about 60k lower than my next lowest WC year, which was 151k in 2020. Which in turn was about 40-50k below the average of all of my other writing years, which have been 190k+. I know for a lot of people, 90k words in a year may still seem like quite a lot, but as you can see, I'm used to writing more, and I've felt that difference in terms of my output. Like a lot of people, this has been a really rough year, almost especially because nothing terrible has happened at all. But mentally I have been seriously depleted, which has understandably taken a toll on my creative energy. I'd really love to try and regain some of that in the new year, but we'll see how it goes.

Total fics posted in 2022: 22

2022 Total Word Count Goal: 93,865 / 150,000

2022 Total Writing Days Goal: 202 / 220
