The Lesser Known Destiel Fics Collection
Welcome to the most underrated collection on AO3!! Every fic in this collection is something someone out there feels should have more views, more kudos, more comments, more love and recognition! That's our aim--connect discerning Destiel readers trying to find more diamonds in the rough to enjoy. So many surveys aim to catalog our "favorites" and "top" fics, and those are great! But let's face it, some real gems are being missed out on this way!
Enter: Us! Being a "Lesser Known Fic" is an honor. Someone loves your story so much, they want more of the world to read it!! However, if you would like your fic removed, please just message @caslostwings on Twitter or @castielslostwings on tumblr! Recs may also be submitted this way between rounds.
Fic recs are typically collected via Twitter "Rounds." The first was held in early April of 2021, and another will happen soon. You can see the original tweets by searching the hashtag #lesserknownfics.
As of now, the collection is closed, but it may be opened in the future. More recs will definitely be added!

FAQ:
--> What is a "Lesser Known Fic"? Well, that is up to you! The definition is not hard or fast, it's simply inclusive of any fanfic that a reader (or author) feels is deserving of more attention than it's thus far received. Generally speaking, fics should be given some time before being classified in this category--"just posted" fics are probably not eligible. Fics that are regularly circulated on social media and on rec lists should not be included. "Fan favorites" that are accepted by the Destiel fandom as such aren't good candidates. These are all loose rules, however, and the definition IS subjective. There is no "kudos limit," however, a fic with 5k kudos is probably not a LKF. The idea is that the type of fics described above already have lists and exposure, so this is a good place to let others shine!
--> This list must include the Dean/Cas ship in some form
--> All ratings welcome
