I know I've already said this once or twice, but Sequitur is AMAZING, and deserves capital letters, stars, and sparkles. Sequitur can make NCIS go into steampunk/Victorian AU and still keep everyone in character beautifully. Both the oneshots and the multi-chapter fics have a fine balance of fluff, angst and humor in the style of the actual NCIS.

A handy place to accumulate goodfic you've enjoyed and that others have enjoyed enough to recommend as well. :D
glee doesn't get a lot of attention here (Not sure if that's a blessing or a cure), so I thought I'd plug an author.
Soulless Warlock (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/546606/Soulless_Warlock)- sorry, I'm not good at posting links into words) writes several fics in Glee about an OC named Jack Harmon, who is the biggest asshole you'll meet. This guy also made me take a big look at how I write, changing from bland description to snarking at the characters- I cannot recommend his stories enough.

Face of the Enemy by Soledad is exceptionally good-so much so that I actually read a lot of it, despite its length and the fact that I'm not very much of a LotR fan/expert.
The author possesses an excellent and semi-Tolkien-esque ability to describe another culture in detail. He/she believes that "the individual realms and peoples of Harad were based on – and partially named after – the once really existing nomadic or semi-nomadic Asian realms of the early Middle Ages."
I don't know. The scenario is horribly contrieved. Rainbow Dash isn't stupid enough to risk her life for a ribbon. And really, she has been hit by worse things than that. The whole mood doesn't fit the world.
And I'm not even a fan.
Many people point to this as proof Twilight either has merit or has no merit (depends on who you're talking to, and how they spin it). I don't care about Twilight either way, but this is worth reading.
I recommended Luminosity and Radiance at the last legendary goodfic thread. Of course *now* people listen... *goes off to grumble for no reason*
I don't investigate every goodfic thread posted, especially if it's Twilight related.
I don't care either. Personally, I think canon Twilight can go die in a fire, but whenever I'm faced with something stupid from the canon versions, I think of Luminosity and I'm better.
I find the step-by-step logic of Luminosity's Bella oddly entertaining/funny/comforting.
Honestly, I like the fact that Alice is used more here. Why risk a car crash when you can avoid it a few minutes before it happens? Why NOT ask the girl who can predict the reactions of people for relationship advice, in fact? Plus, the fact that there's an actual reason for the creepy-in-love thing that vampires have, as well as Bella screwing up royally with the werewolves, is awesome.
In fact, I think I'll go add Luminosity to the Twilight Goodfic list.
On the wiki page for Twilight's canon, yes
