12:33p - OMG I'm an author so listen to me!!! - Pagan Wank
I'm leaving this community. CONVINCE ME NOT TO, DAMN YOU!!!

anotherjen is important. She has written pagan books. Writing pagan books means you are wise. When you are wise, all of the pagan community should listen to you, for you are important. Unfortunately for her, most of the NonFluffyPagans don't really agree with her.

Last Plea for Kindness from the Evil Ravening Hordes!!! )

Responses are varied. )

Most of Jen's responses seem to center around "I know these people and they're wonderful," "I wrote a book and am smart, so do what I say," or "Don't be a hater."

Examples )

Ahhh, I love pagans. In no other place can you find such a delicious combination of self-rightious indignation and self-importance over such small things.

Edit: Thanks to the lovely otf wankers [info]cimorene111 and [info]visp, my Asatru Christian defensiveness has been punctured. *sob* I have repented of this statement. Pagans are not the worst for this; knitters are. Pagans are just in the top ten.

P.S.
Pagan author name suggestions (via the glorious fandom wank). Sorry, but I felt the need to collect these; they're wonderful!!! (From [info]cleolinda, [info]pokecheck, [info]phosfate, [info]sadisticferret, an anonymouse or three, [info]iczer6, and myself. I love you all, even me. Muah! Muah!)

8:53p - The Little Cinder Girl Meets The Bookyoucrew
Here's a tale of literary wank. 'Tis small, but wanky and bite sized and tasty with mustard.

Once upon a time, Cinderjewel joined a community called thebookyoucrew. Bookyoucrew is a community that rates "your literary taste and knowledge (or lack thereof)." When you join, you must post a list of your top 20 books and then, they rate you.

So, Cinderjewel posts her list. It includes books written by Anne Rice, Laura Ingalls Wilder, J.K. Rowling and Alexander Dumas. The Bookyoucrew doesn't take kindly to the little cinder girl and give comments such as "this one is called "gag me with a spoon"
and "This list isn't worth voting on."

As per community rules, the poster is not actually allowed to comment until they've been accepted into the community. Unable to lie idly by, Cinderjewel fires back in her lj, not once, not twice, but thrice.

Will anyone live happily ever after here?

Edit: In her latest post, Cinderjewel writes "I'm ever so grateful no reported that whole epidone to FW. I would have been mortified, althought at the sime time, seriously amused"
Think we should break it to her? ;)

Edit 2: After the wank hits the fan, the moderator feels the need to address the unwashed masses crew and warn off all the literary peons here.

Edit 3: [info]ladybirdsleeps would like to pick your brains. She wants to know what Wankers' top 20 books are. Go here to read all about it and add your own choices.
