I'm in an unusual fic mood, in that I'm looking for really, really, really good Shep-centered gen fic... and it doesn't even have to contain whump. Gasp! Character studies, emotional angst, emotional H/C, humor, team fluff. It just has to be Shep-centered and, like I said, really, really, really good - well written with a good plot. Something that, maybe, knocked your socks off or that you simply enjoyed without having to ignore off-characterization, bad spelling or poor flow. As well as any stories that you have written that you feel are either your best, or simply have a special place in your heart.
And, again, I stress Sheppard fics. Not stories where Sheppard gets whumped, or it's his POV, but the story itself is really about one of the other characters. Friendship fics are okay, whether John/McKay, Ronon or Teyla, or John/team. But, please, no romantic pairings.
Just think of this as a gen Shep-fic free-for-all.
A few I'd like to recommend: (I would rate all of these pretty much PG-13 and under, and all are gen.)

East of the Sun, West of the Moon and Apocrypha by Dossier.
Raiders of the Seven Systems by ltlj - an AU, where Sheppard is a space pirate *heart flutters.* Currently a WIP.
Leave No Man Behind by coolbreeze1 - lots of lovely Sheppard angst in this one.
Honor Bound by Baroqy
Worry About You by reen212000
Condemned, Revisited by Kodiak Bear Country
Painful Reminders by Obsessed1
Gray Days by Kristen999
What's Left Behind by Daring Duo
Nothing but Sky by Sazz27
What Dreams May Come by T'pring
There was a lot more than this I wanted to recommend. A lot more. But decided to stick with stories that I felt were very John centric. Had I caved and gone for John centric and team, or John/Rodney friendship, I might as well have copied and pasted my faves list on FF.net. And some stories I couldn't determine if they were John centric or John/Rodney friendship pieces.
