General Fics
''Stories focused on the family and the friendly relationships of the cast. Plot-focused stories or light day-in-the-life stories. Pretty much anything that isn't focused on romance.''

Keeper of the Spatula by SOLMaster
 * Recommended by Golden Football Player
 * Synopsis: I watched the Lord of the Rings movie, and I came up with this. I love the story to it, and I thought, "What if there was a SpongeBob version of it?" So after careful thinking, I decided to write one which I titled "Keeper of the Spatula". ~Excerpt from the Author's Note of the story.
 * Comments: Pretty good for a SpongeBob story, and it works as a Lord of the Rings parody.

The Christmas Party by DeterminedX2
 * Recommended by E350
 * Synopsis: Not to give away a spoiler, but this is my version of a certain something referenced at the end of the episode, "The Secret Box."
 * Comments: The story behind the embarrasing snapshot in Patrick's secret box. In short, Spongebob gets drunk. Hilarity Ensues.

Spongebob's Christmas Carol by Sgt. Reynol
 * Recommended by E350
 * Synopsis: SpongeBob and friends retell Charles Dickens' classic novel when Ebenezer Krabs is visited by three ghosts to learn the true meaning of Christmas.
 * Comments: It's a Christmas Carol. With Spongebob characters. Better Than It Sounds.

In the Bathroom by DeterminedX2
 * Recommended by E350
 * Synopsis: SpongeBob and Squidward are accidentally locked in the Krusty Krab bathroom overnight.
 * Comments: It feels just like a real episode, of the old pre-movie variety. Be warned, though - Squidward suffers a lot.

Felony by Third Kind
 * Recommended by: Pinball Playing Penguin
 * Synopsis: Sure, loads of fish have been going missing every weekend night in Bikini Bottom for years. Surely those disappearances weren't linked to The Chum Bucket... right?
 * Comments: One usually doesn't expect anything good to come out of a SpongeBob story that uses the term "Dark Fic" to describe it, but this one does rather well, despite the ocassional Out of Character moments (which are usually justified due to the situations). It also brings up a bit of Fridge Horror that's in the actual show that doesn't get quite touched upon.

Plankton's Eye View by Monica Gilbey-Bieb- er, Jimmy.
 * Recommended by: Pinball Playing Penguin
 * Synopsis: After ten years in prison, Plankton has been given a second chance to redeem himself and turn his life around, which is something that is almost impossible at his current bitter state, but he will take the chance.
 * Comments: Don't let this author's first fanfic fool you; this author shows great promise with a story that shows how Plankton tries to live his life and redeem himself after finding out the sort of impact his actions from The Movie had on his life as well as Karen's. Though it does start out referring to said "first fanfic" in the first chapter, one doesn't really have to read it in order to understand what's happening throughout the rest of it; you can pretty much skip it if you want.

Shipping Fics
Stories focused on the romantic relationships between the cast.

Future Shock by SOLMaster
 * Recommended by E350
 * Pairing: Hinting of SpongeBob/Sandy
 * Synopsis: After getting fired from the Krusty Krab, SpongeBob accidentaly gets teleported to the future and sees that the future is not as he expected and must face his most dangerous enemy of all time.
 * Comments: A sight better then most things you'll find in the SpongeBob section. Also, it has a sequel.

Night of the Weresnail by SOLMaster
 * Recommended by Nausicaa of the Spirits
 * Pairing: Hints of SpongeBob/Sandy here and there.
 * Synopsis: While SpongeBob was walking home, he gets bit by a mysterious creature, and soon starts to act very snaily. Can SpongeBob's friends get him back to normal before the Krusty Krab Dance Party and before he turns into a vicious weresnail forever?
 * Comments: A good read, especially around Halloween. Pays homage to Alvin and the Chipmunks Meet The Wolfman and the transformation scene towards the end of Chapter 6, including a scene in Chapter 5, especially pays homage to Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit.

A Mighty Fishy Crew by Cartoonatic55
 * Recommended by E350
 * Pairing: Spongebob/Sandy, with references to Davy Jones/Calypso. Also includes some one-sided Mama Krabs/Davy Jones, which is Played for Laughs.
 * Synopsis: Davy Jones hires the cast from Spongebob Squarepants to be part of his crew, but how long can he handle their crazy antics?
 * Comments: Absolutely hilarious, but surprisingly deep at some points. A must read, although it's incomplete at the time of writing. As you can probably tell, a crossover with Pirates of the Caribbean, as well as Kingdom Hearts, Futurama, The Batman and Lilo and Stitch later on. Also,
