As someone who has run a blog like this, I see no problem with linking to a fic without the author's permission. It's very common in fandom for people to rec fics without asking permission- it's a pleasant surprise for an author to find or be shown. AO3 even has a button to share a fic on tumblr and that doesn't require the author's permission.
You're not going to step on any toes so long as you're only linking to the fic as a recommendation. If you started grading the fics or critiquing them, then you'd need permission but just linking to them? You're fine.
I am also really excited for this because rec blogs are awesome. Go you!
oh yeah!! it's entirely just a linking/collating situation, i'd never want to grade or otherwise pass judgement on someone else's work, that's not my place at all!!
thanks for the advice and encouragement!! i'll post the link (with the mod's permission) when i've got it started up :)
