A story with both high meaning and impact. A story whose themes resonate with me deeply, whose observations carried great meaning in my life, and whose flaws do not drag these down. My personal best of the best.

A story with great meaning and impact, but a flawed implementation. What they’re doing is really worthwhile, but it takes some sorting through for the story to really shine.

A story with solid meaning and solid impact. While they don’t reach for the heavens often these stories have charm and heart all on their own, and they stick with you, having brought you joy, sadness, or reflection.

A story which was meaningful and impactful, but only in the short term. Its charm fades over time. Breezier stories which while amusing or touching in the moment, move on with the wind.

Short-fics, more or less. Stories which capture a moment or emotion but due to their length can’t expand on their content, but still offer meaning and value nonetheless.

Stories which have potential, but which I’m waiting on the final chapter before I place them.
