I've selected fics which hopefully show off what a varied writer Kris is - long, short, humourous, tragic. She has an enviable ability to be at ease whatever she is writing, and whatever universe or series it's set in.
Kris also runs the Ficship Competitions over at ffn, designed to highlight good fanfics across the board - so we're shining the spotlight on her for a change!
Title: Ten Reasons Briar Moss is Still Single

Rating: PG-13
Summary: Numair and Onua have a difficult conversation when the events of Wild Magic show that the past can repeat itself, in the real world and in the mind.
Because: Although Numair and Onua are evidently friends in the books, we don't see enough of them in canon, so this fic is excellent for exploring that and tackling larger issues alongside their friendship.
