Awards and Reviews
Slashing the Angel won Best Fanfic Site in the Winter 2002 Halo Awards. The judges' reviews were:
Can you say "Oh my!" I absolutely LOVE the picture of Angel on the main page. It's absolutely delicious, and I'm not even talking about the naked tushy. ... It is a definite bookmark for those who are into Slash fiction. I just dig this site. First of all, the frames show Angel in leather pants, and the splash page shows Angel naked, so, right off, I'm on board. Second, this is a very focused site (Angel slash), with selected fic of generally high quality, and yet there's something here for almost everyone, thanks to the Schizm section (where non-ship or even het fic is archived as well). It's easy to navigate and to find exactly what you're looking for. Handsome, functional and sexy, like Angel himself. :)[1]
