As a writer, I'm capable of writing in a variety of genres from historical to science fiction but one thing I can't seem to do is keep the romance out of my writing. I adore being in love and there is nothing more amazing to me than bringing two characters together and creating a world where they can come together and fall in love.

I write a lot of series work for fan fiction and by far the most romantic series (in my mind) is What Might Have Been. Lately I've been working on the novel follow up for that series (Ring of Fire) and honestly I've been putting off finishing this book because I know it's the last time I'll probably write a full on novella/novel for this series. I doubt I'll ever fully let go of this 'verse because as a writer I'm kind of in love with it. Maybe it's too sappy for words and the characters are larger than life but when I started writing it was because I wanted this big epic, surreal romance for John/Rodney and I'd looked around the fandom for a while and didn't find anything that exactly fit my want so I wrote it for myself. When I started posting it I wasn't even sure it was a series or what it was but then it turned into something really awesome and huge and a kid!fic which I don't even normally read.

So, what are the most romantic pieces of fan fic in the SGA fandom for you?

I keep returning to these...

Wow, so many...
Of course, there is WMHB.
Coming Home by Xanthe. Brilliant. First Author I read that did just to BDSM.
Make a Wish by Bluespirit. I always want to give this John a hug.
Story of a Girl by Jenn, because I love this Rodney and "his" description of the moment he realized he was in love with Joan (Yea, it's a gender switch story) is beautiful.
Fading Skies by Diamond Raven. Breaks my heart every time. I love how Rodney stands by his man, even when his man is holding the most frustrating, heart-rending, pity party ever. He gets over it.
Our Own Reality by Velocitygrass... John has a relationship with Rodney for nearly a year... and then he wakes up.
Every Day in Every Way by Velocitygrass... apparently it's her job to make me fall in love with these boys over and over again.
Glastonbury '87 - '07 by rasah. Adore this John, because he is so John and at the same time not.
The Short Botanical Courtship of Lorne and Parrish by slybrarian.... because Lorne is cute and Parrish is clever.
