As a fan of multiple authors here and at other sites, I am wondering which author or authors you go back to when you are looking for a good story or two to read. When I go looking I seem to find my self looking for the stories written by Wolfjess, Snowfall, Paula Dillon, Sara UK and efindumb first.
I'm looking for some people who's stories I have not read yet and may enjoy at another time.
Thanks for your help in advance. Hugs!
Who is your go to author?

Favorite Author?
That's like going into a four-star restaurant and picking your favorite meal. It depends.
You've got good taste in those you mentioned.
Laika is my favorite author, if I want a good laugh -- and a sock to the gut -- shes on top.
Bru also can be shockingly direct - in very few words.
Jenny Walker is probably the best for delivering an amazing tale.
Summer Bailey tugs at my heartstrings.
Rasufelle is good for stirring memories of my youth.
Erin's work is great -- no matter which name she uses to write. I read everything she has to offer.
Maryanne Peters will fit your bill, if you like short stories.
You can't miss with the two Browns (Susan and Melanie).
Cassy Bee is a pro.
Shauna is fantastic. Her writing is commercial level.
Angharad leaves us all breathless with her consistency.
Drea does some things that shouldn't be missed.
I have many more I read as soon as I see something.
BC is a box of chocolates.
You can't miss.

Angela Rasch (Jill M I)
Jill left out one important name on her list:
Herself i.e. "Angela Rasch".
Usually longish stand-alone stories.
Now available in re-edited versions.
Also note that she states WHY she mentions various writers which give you a clue about them.
Unusually she also mentions short story writers (I'm 1.63m).
To add a couple of names not mentioned already.
Kat Walker has a whacky sense of humour that I appreciate. For the moment she's having a slow-down in posting so some stories are still in progess. Though, in my opinion the journey is more imporportant than the goal in her case.
I like Torey's sweet stories not only because I'm a ballet nut.
SamanthaMD has posted both short stories and longer. Often involving TG persons without that aspect being the dominant one. She is in the process of stringing several of them together into a "saga".
And then there is ... and... and...
If you browse around in this candy store you're bound to find something to your taste.
Thanks for the recommend hon!
And I second Bru's suggestion of your stuff too: it's a grab bag of a lot of different premises, so no matter what someone's looking for there's something for them there. I was reading your stuff before I even discovered BCTS, if I recall correctly :)
Honestly, there are so many tremendous authors here it's hard to limit down a list without feeling you're short-changing someone who really deserves a recommendation. For now, though, I'll stick to two more:
Erin Halfelven (and assorted pen names.) Not only is her stuff great, but like Angie's she writes a little bit of everything, and almost all of it with her characteristic humor and wit.
Melanie E. (Rasufelle.) What? I can recommend myself right? I mean, I wouldn't write the stories I do if I wasn't interested in readin' 'em myself! Plus I could use the book sales and reviews: momma needs a new pair of shoes! (And jeans. And underpants. And a new corset would be nice....)
*hugs*
Melanie E.
Anything and everything by
Laika. Randalynn, Bailey Summers, Angela, Dorothy, Steph C., Kelly Blake, Joannebarbarella, and of course Erin and her accompanying noms de plume? So many others here. And of course all the 'youngin's' who have come along in the last year or so. Plus you can find some superb writing from the list of authors in the dedication box of folks who have passed on. Unlike Restaurant Impossible, the 'menu' here will never get too big, since the place is huge with so much to offer for all tastes and genres within the transgender fiction spectrum.
I even heard that the new breakroom vending machines have Kit Kat Bars and full-size Snickers as well as Mountain Dew and Dr Pepper.
Love, Andrea Lena
There are many here that I admire.......
And some that I love. Some of them not just for their writing, but for what they have done for me as a person.
There are even those I call friend here, and several who without sounding cliched, literally saved my life at one time or another.
But if I had to narrow it down to one........
Bailey Summers.
Without Bailey, I would not be who I am now. Hell, without Bailey, I would be not be. I would be lying six feet under beneath a piece of Vermont granite supplied by the US Government.
There are many here to whom I owe more than I can ever repay, and to all of them please know that you have my heartfelt thanks.

Morpheus
I am very surprised no one has mentioned Morpheus. I also rate Cassy Bee very highly. I very much regret that Elsbeth suddenly disappeared while The Lost Queen was still unfinished.
Hadn't Really Thought About It...
...and I'm not sure why not. In a lot of cases, it's just going back to old stories by people who have new ones out: Amethyst's Hyperverse stories are the most recent, along with Ricky.
But I think Casey Brooke would probably be my first choice. Lately I've been re-reading D.L. When I'm in the mood, the Magic of the Kingdom series and its spinoffs, by Zoe Taylor and DarkKitten (aka Ashleigh Macgreagor) can really hit the spot.

favorite authors
While most of those already mentioned are among my favorites I would definitely include Tanya Allan, Julie O, and Shiraz.
Hugs to everyone!
My favorites
I would have to say the following for me: Tiffany Shar - Standing Up to Life started me out and am still waiting for it to continue
Crystal Sprite - I have read Texas Gal multiple times
Daring Diane - The cheerleader series with Lee and Darby has been read so many times that if in print, I would need new copies
Karen Singer - the McComber Twins and Baby Bobby are some of my favorites
I can't narrow it down to one
My top two are Cyclist and Bailey Summers. Cyclist does the most amazing characterization and I love the way her stories are related to each other. Her stories revolve around love and caring. Bailey has an amazing imagination and has had me liking a genre that I never expected to on a couple of occasions. It's because of her that the first country I visited after getting a passport with the correct name was Canada!
