Don't take my favorite stories too seriously, while I have a ton of good stuff in there, it's more of a list of stories I want to remember for many different reasons, for example I have the first fic I ever read in there, even though it's utter crap.

You can however take my list of favorite authors very, very seriously. I'm arguably too strict with my criteria for Favorite authors, but if an author is in the list, I enjoy every single story from said author.
To be honest, it doesn't matter what I'm currently reading, they release something? I'm reading it.
