4:42AM - Looking for old wank
Halp, I think I may be going crazy. I've spent the last hour and a half trying to locate an old wank. I'm sure that back in 2003 or 2004, there was a wank with a crazy lady who hated NaNoWriMo. On her website she spoke of how she suffered every day for her craft, waiting for the perfect novel to come to her (as I recall, she hadn't written a single novel draft yet, only short stories). I think she was unemployed, married and living with her husband's parents or something. I checked f_w, fandom_lounge and oft_wank around October-November but I couldn't find it. Was it actually here that I saw that? Anyone remember such a wank? I may not even be looking at the right place.
I just have the urge to find out whether she's still out there, crazy and unpublished.

8:01PM - Female Fanlib?
Anyone hear of Organization for Transformative Works?
Apparently Naomi Novik is part of a group of people striving to make fanfic a legal and legitimate. Plus on Fanlib, they appear to be made up of women. Double plus, they don't plan on profiting from fanworks. And unlike Fanlib, instead of having the fanwriters foot the legal bills for the them, they plan on providing legal defense for fanwriters.
So any bets on if this will turn into tears and wails of "Don't ruin fandom for us!" or if fanwriters will actually embrace this new group?
EDIT: Well, we got one big vote of no-confidence already.
