Let's hear it for Pinata Donkey!
If you don't get that reference, I'm guessing you weren't around for the Fanlib disaster...
It was a for-profit fanfiction archive that did everything - and I mean EVERYTHING - wrong. Here's an advert:
It *still* cracks me up... (There was fic written about those guys, oooh yes! If you're curious, I can find a link...) I don't think anyone ever discovered what was up with the pinata donkey though - it seemed totally random.
The site died more than a year ago. \o/ Whole sorry tale here.
Aaaaanyway, OTW (Organization for Transformative Works) sprung from this, and it is they who have set up the Archive of our Own...
Which is my roundabout way of saying, that I'd totally love an invite to Archive of our Own, if there are spares. :) I've got two promised to me now, so don't worry.

Really? I had a look and it had around 300 on it, so I thought I'd ask the flist first. So thanks for the heads up! :)

Just not sure if they immideately hand out invites with the new accounts.
The thing looks really neat, doesn't it?

\o/ And I'm quite happy to wait - I've still got the world's most awkward fic to finish. (It's ALMOST there, it's just fighting me every step of the way...)

It sure does! *admires shiny-ness*
