I want to share my favourite non-contemporary J/C writers today
Jo'lynaralt.startrek.creativeBecause itâs fanfic writers appreciation day and some of you may not have read the wonderful stories these authors created.
KatLadyâs extensive J/C Fanfic: She has everything you could wish for: fluff, spice, angst, and tremendous hurt and shipper heart horror. One of the go-tos when you want to see our favourite OTP suffer. (Not for the faint of heart, though.)
Spilettaâs Imagery Acres:Â Another one of those whoâve written it all. Spiletta has short, novella length and novel length stories of about any rating. For the squirmish ones, she usually has two versions of the spicier stories.
Mandy aka maulmistress: neatly organized into PG-rated and adult stories, she has also been very active and has written some really nice angst, wonderful smut, and just about everything else the shipperâs heart can want - including the indecent OTP-suffering through brutalityshay story. Sadly, sheâs one of the geocities victims, so you may have to use the waybackmachine to find your way around her site a bit. Some pages have been archived up to 2009, others only up to 2002.
Maquis Leader: One of my all time favourites and definitely a go to when you need a goold old smut of any variety. Maquis Leader has it all and the writing is wonderful. (The site is titled Chakotayâs Bedroom, I guess that says it all - there are PG rated stories, though.) Another site on the Internet cemetery, sadly. [Edit] Maquis Leader has a new, working site with all links fixed. So no more waybackmachine necessary!
Shayenneâs Erotica: Yes, Iâm actually linking the Erotica page, because I havenât actually read all of Shayenneâs stories as of yet. And I know you all have a dirty, depreaved mind like me. Anyone who doesnât - she also has PG-rated stories HERE. And best of all, the site is still active and doesnât have to be accessed through the waybackmachine.
Deltaâs Trekker Treats: Delta has a comprehensive list of fanfiction (and other delicious stuff) on her site. Sheâs a wonderful writer and still active in fandom. Sheâs currently moving her stories to a03 HERE, which is wonderul. But Iâll link her website, so you can explore her other stuff as well.
Ralkanaâs Hideout: Ralkana - yes the pseudonym is an ode to VOYâs Resistance - has her own fanfic as well as links to wonderful other writers (some of which are mentioned here.)
JinnyR: A Koffeeklub and VAMB member. Closing Ranks is one of my favourites. And I usually stumble over A New Phage, simply because of the title and description. Iâm not sure if itâs meant to say Phase, of it the Phage is intentional, but, oh wellâŚ
Caffey: Youâll actually have to navigate to Caffeyâs stories by going to Voyager  â> Caffey on the side menu. I love Intimate Lessons, the summary is already worth reading, and Non-Fraternization 101.
KJâs Fanfiction: Yes, I go there for the NC-17 stuff, but Iâm sure her other stories are wonderful as well. Havenât read them though. But if youâre into smut, check out her adult page. She has some really hot ones. The image that greets you is worth the click. (I just realized itâs been so long I donât remember most of the stories and have a reason to re-read. Not that I need one, really.)
Rachael Goldâs Black Hole: Yes, the image that greets you is creepy af, but her stories are worth getting beyond that. As far as I kow, her spicier stories have a password protection. Youâll have to email her, but donât worry, sheâs usually fast to reply. And when you get the password, youâll facepalm yourself for not thinking of it as a true J/Cer. I loved A Convenient Marriage, although itâs not the obvious shipperâs choice. [Edit] Rachael is currently moving her stories to ao3 (here) and preparing to shut her site down.
Ghostwriterâs Library: I donât actually remember this writer, but I have the site saved for some reason and the stories read strangely familiar. Iâm sure itâs worth a read if I saved it.
NODAâs Fanfiction:(link fixed)Â My favourite is Proper Order, I guess. But itâs honestly been so long that I only vaguely remember. But the stories are definitely good.
Sheriâs Stories: Sheâs one of the victims of the wattpadd plague - by which I mean wattpadd members stealing stories and posting them under their own name. Sheâs also a Koffeeklub member. I remember I loved An Eyeful, Lifelline, First House and Seasons in the Sun. Innocence Lost gives another spin on Janewayâs relationship with Tom Paris. Worth a read. She has her stories neatly organized into clean, msut free and adult stories. But we all know we want to go there. Sheâs co-written some stories with Dakota.
Dakotaâs Star Trek Voyager:Â Dakota moved her site and Iâm linking to the old one, because itâs still active. Her newer site, to which she links herself, is only accessible through the waybackmachine. While her stories are neatly organized by date, they lack any rating information beforehand - meaning youâll have to open the story to see the rating. Thereâs also no summaries or short content description. Youâre going in blind here.
Dawnâs Voyager Drabbles and Dreams: Never forget Dawn. Sheâs my hero for writing The Future Is Ours. If you need to save one fanfic yor your vacation, take this one. Itâs the length of 3 novels and wonderfully perfect. It has everything and more. Her other stories are wonderful as well.
Ky aka venom69: A lot of dark and twisty material here. Much of it with adult content. But itâs nicely marked and the descriptioons/ sumaries give a good insight if you are into it or not.
Kadithâs weyr: I donât remember much about the story, but the site title is stuck in my head. Maybe because itâs so different that you just donât forget, or maybe because the stories were are so good? I donât remember, but itâs probably worth checking out. There are also collaborations and other pairings (namely J/Ayala.). Thereâs a lot of material to read through.
elemâs Voyager J/C Fanfiction: Last but not least, elem! Sheâll be forever one of my most cherished writer. Why? Well, sheâs the one I first read and when you read her stories from oldest to newest you can see her first humble attempts and how she developed as a writer. I love her writing style. Some of her stories read like poetry and are just so wonderful you want to put them on your shelf and stare at them all day. Her later stories make you want to caress your computer screen, they are so tender and carefully crafted. She has a uniquely wonderful grasp on J/C and the best thing is, sheâs been active forever and still is. She started out in 2005, I think, and her newest stories are from 2016. For some reason, I really love Puppy Love and keep going back to that one. [Edit] Elem has since moved to ao3 and can be found here.
Honorary mention because I access their site everyonce in a while and reread their old stuff:
Tessa
Spud
MaquisRebel aka MaquisKat (home to one of the corn stories - A Little Consolation Price)
EJ
Angelina VansenÂ
Nyah
The Secret Logs of Mistress Janeway by NovaD (Rumour has it someone printed these out and left them on Kate Mulgrewâs doorstep - her dressing room doorstep, not her home - and Kate read it before handing it over to security!)

Also, never underestimate the power the trekiverse archives, especially the old archive is a gold mine. If youâre looking for original ASC content, this is your place!
addition for anyone whoâs looking for the famous corn stories (yes stories - thereâs more than just the one): Cream of the Crop Contest
I know elem doesnât really fit my own category of non-contemporary as in no longer active. But her writing feels like sheâs been doing this forever and I couldnât ever not include her in any of my favourite writers lists.
But well, if you know of any other J/C writers who are no longer active but need to be mentioned, please reblog and add your own recommendations. Iâll never tire of reading J/C fanfic. I probably forgot a bunch of terrific writers, but these are the ones at the top of my list, at least corresponding to my browserâs reading list.
Iâll have to make a list of my favourite contemporary writers soon.
Hope youâll love these as much as I do. Please tell me, if any of these are old or new news to you. Iâd like to hear your thoughts.
And if you discover one of these writer through this post, go let them know you love them if they can still be reached.
Reblogging this again because I fixed any broken links and extended by a whole bunch.
I will reblog the original post anytime I make significant changes.
Let me know if you find any broken links in the future.
This takes me back to when I first got into Voyager and JC. @angrywarrior69 @coffee-in-that-nebula-oitnb check these out.
DAMN. Now this is what I call a resource!!
