Links

Pop Slash Websites:

Bedroom Eyes: Liz. JC/Justin. Wuv Twu Wuv, Awake, Sound, Groupies. (There are more stories, not Joshtin-ones.)
Boys Like That: Nick/Justin. Alpha, Tendre.
Bury Me Deep: Pet. Lots of different pairings.
The Closet Website: A strictly Joshtin website hosting some of the best authors for this pairing.
Entwined Souls: Was created mostly because of Slashygoodness' unreliability as of late. Strictly Joshtin, hosting a lot of different authors. Good page.
Ghetto: Kaelie. - Joshtin. Destinations, Outside, Unblinded
Illuminations: Featuring authors such as the stunning Rhys. I also recommend taking a trip into the world of "Just So Pretty."
I Will Not Be Afraid Of Boybands: Jae. Mostly Chris/Justin. Great writer.
Lucy: She's a very inventive author. Most of her stories are Chris-centric. Very, very good writing here. Gods, Beast, The Bar and others I can't think of right now. Wait, Misfits!
Lyra's Wing: Lyra. JC/Justin.
Nasty Boys: Most stories by Cody. JC/Justin. Good page, also containing pictures.
N'Fictionary: All stories are written by Lisa, Justin/JC-ish.
Nifty Archive, boy bands section: You have too much time? Let's say, a year or so? That could be enough to read all of the stories about :NSYNC, the Backstreet Boys, 98°,.... Maybe. (Be warned, though: A lot of these stories are very ... pornographic, to put it mildly. And yes, there's a reason I didn't use the word 'erotic'.)
Nikka's Kids: Nikka. Boifriend, Observations, Backstage Pass and many more. JC/Justin.
Pen's Playhouse: Pen. No need to say more. Not Until You Love Me - Joshtin, Lambs. She's also talking about writing Eminem some time or other, but for the time being, she seems to have settled for bothering others about their Eminem stories.
Precious Things: Ice. Aylex. Sai. Esa. Every single one of them is a wonderful person, and a just as wonderful author. Go and worship them.
Puppies In A Box: I'm in awe of them. So in awe. Synchronik, Helen, Sinead,... Haven't read everything yet, though. Synchronik: On The Bus, Not So Hot, Antimatter, Matter,... There are more, lots more, great stories by all of them, but I'm just not able to remember the titles.
Secksi Is Good: Megan and Dannii. The Love We Have.
Shades of Blue: Raina. I should have added this site to the links section a century ago, but hey, it's me we're talking about, so what else is to expect than chronic tardiness? It All Depends... (Justin/JC and lately also Wade/Justin)
Slashygoodness: Used to be the site for all Justin/JC shippers. Past tense.
Sweet Uncleanness: All stories are written by Matthew, a lot of them about :NSYNC, but there are also some about the Backstreet Boys, 98° and Five. Great page with an author so high above me it's almost ridiculous.
Tarowen: I'm loving Talliswood. It's inventive, and original. And Tarowen herself's just lovable.
Temporary Insanity: Go! Go and read everything you can find there, especially everything by Calico. Umm, you should be over 18, though, because her smut writing skills are something I'll admire forever and a day.
Timbershazaylink: A list of the best Joshtin sites and/or stories. I adore the layout.
Waxworld: A large number of awe-inspiring authors. Besides, there's also, um. [Mr. Bloom and Mr. Wood get to work] Because... Orlijah!

Other Slash Websites:

Buffet: Lord of the Rings. Discovered this only very recently. Wished I had found it earlier. Fucked.
Closer Than Brothers: Lord of the Rings. The archive of the LotR RPS list. Meaning: You will find actor slash here. Also features some pictures.
Irresistible Poison: Harry Potter. I absolutely, totally adore Rhysenn's Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy story. It's just... Whoah. Irresistible Poison.
Mr Bloom and Mr Wood Get To Work: Lord of the Rings. RPS. Again, an archive. Great authors. Clean-cut, Bizarre Love Triangle, White, Panoramic. Gah. Just read everything.
Out Of Hobbit: Lord of the Rings. Ice's obsession with Billy equals my obsession with Orlando. She's my darling.
Tolkien Slash: Lord of the Rings, this time about the book characters instead of the actors. Hundreds of stories. Literally.
