There’s a Twitter post that’s like ... what’s an elevator-pitch style version of your brand as an author?
It’s weirdly hard to think of? The original fics are ... hmm ... I mean, everything is friendship and/or family drama against a backdrop of magic and politics, so I guess I could go with that as an original fic writer.
For fanfic ... I’m genuinely unsure.

Your recs melt my brain. How about a rec list for Snarry fics *not* on AO3? 🤓
Oh, I'm flattered! Goodness knows I've read enough fic to keep these recs going endlessly! 😂
And gosh, now you're speaking my language, anon! There are many goodies not found on AO3!! (Though, thankfully, many many goodies are!)
Note: I finished this list and they're all on WTP!! I stopped there because I felt the list would get out of control if I started looking elsewhere. 😅 Also, anything else I have non-AO3 and non-WTP will take me longer to dig up. Most of my reading I do on Kindle now so I'll have to remember where I found some of them originally!
So if you want more after this, feel free to send me another ask and I'll dig up what I have that's LJ, ffnet, random-weird-websites, etc. 🌻
Walking the Plank
The Boy Who Lived a Bit (E, 58k) / Care of Magical Teenagers (E, 108k) by Barbarella
Post-Hogwarts, though the War still rages. Harry is holed up at 12 Grimmauld Place with Lupin as his primary protector. Some of the best distractions in these days are provided by one Severus Snape.
&
[sequel to The Boy Who Lived A Bit] The War is finally over. Now Severus and Harry have yet another battle before them - how to carry on their relationship when the whole world wants to marry Harry Potter.
Illumination (M, 3k) by atypicalsnowman
Years after the war, Severus believes he has settled for his relationship with Harry. In order to appreciate Harry for who he really is, Severus must let go of the past. All it takes is a moment.
Crucius (E, 18k) by Dolores Crane
Harry hates being a schoolboy and Snape hates being a teacher; what else do they have in common, and how can they escape?
But It's Better If You Do (E, 4k) / It's Best If You Don't (E, 5k) by dracofiend
After killing Voldemort and escaping the wizarding world, Harry is seventeen and depleted, with nothing but himself to sell. Lapdances are easy to give, because he doesn't think--until he dances for Severus Snape.
&
Sequel to But It's Better If You Do. Harry's learned to do more than lapdance. He won't be saved by anyone but Snape.
Love Sans Romance (E, 300) by fidelis_amor
Ron can't always see the whole picture.
Better Late Than Never (T, 22k) by I Got Tired of Waiting
The year is 2016 and Harry is happily married to Severus Snape. Or is he? When an accident wipes Harry's memories back to a time when Snape was his hated foe and Draco his lover, Harry finds himself required to make a choice. Does he remarry his husband, or does he answer the siren call of a former lover who has seized this opportunity to win him back?
Sunrises (E, 73k) / Happily Ever After (E, 26k) by Julia the Younger
Harry's eighteen, he's just destroyed Voldemort and saved the world and now he's returning to Hogwarts, this time as the new Assistant Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher. Unfortunately he's still not quite over the events of the summer and, stuck at Hogwarts without his friends, with a Professor who seems to resent Harry for breathing, a developing awareness of his horny eighteen year old sexuality and some rather disturbing nightmares, Harry's not feeling the best.
&
Sequel to Sunrises. Harry Potter has returned to Hogwarts as assistant Defence teacher after destroying Voldemort in the summer. Severus Snape on the other hand has finally been given the Defence Against the Dark Arts position, albeit with Harry as his assistant. Both of them have a few issues to deal with, not withstanding their developing feelings for each other. At the end of Sunrises, Albus' helpful little conversation made Severus realise that he wasn't afraid to risk being with Harry and told him so. Now they can live happily ever after.
Know Thine Own Heart (E, 74k) by necromanticnoir
London, 1816. Genteel young clerk Harry Potter is blackmailed by the sinfully wicked Severus Snape. By what does Mr Snape truly desire, and what does it take for Harry to know his own heart? This is Regency-style Harry Potter with cock-fighting *wink*, some good old-fashioned duelling and some scandalous lovemaking – plus a dash of spiritual true, true love.
Dirty Story (E, 6k) by Predatrix
Madam Hooch sees Snape swimming in the lake. What can he have been doing to get dirty? Kink warning: this is imagining Sev as the sort of perv who gets his jollies sniffing around young men in changing rooms. But in a nice way.
The Love Song of Bastard and Idiot (E, 24k) by Predatrix
Pomfrey thinks she's detected usage of a Potion that suppresses the libido. A reverse-aphrodisiac love-story.
Cloistered (M, 24k) by Siobhan Parker (translated by RaeWhit)
During fifth year, Harry is stunned to discover that in a previous life he was a novice in a monastery...and that Snape was there with him…
Fever (E, 5k) by Spirit
Harry has been cursed with an ancient spell and is lost in a world of delirium. Contains dark thoughts, SS/HP Slash and graphic blood related image descriptions.
The Civil War series (E, lotsa words) by Sushi
You know, the CW-verse is an odd story. I don't mean that whole mess with... well, it's right here if you want to find out. *grin* What I mean is that the whole thing started with a vague, half-baked PWP idea that hit me one morning before I was lucid enough to do anything more than go, "Oh, that could be really, really nice, Snape and Harry finding some common ground and a bit of comfort in the process". (This was back in very late November of 2001, when there were hardly any Harry-Snape fics to be found.) The whole Sparta aspect was meant to be a secondary story running parallel to the events of "Marching Off To War". It had a very dream-like quality about it, full of shadows and poetic images and this sub-story about two ancient soldiers finding surcease of torment in each other before a battle. Very pretty, very much a one-shot thing.
