Just call her "The Unknown (and terrible) Nikita Writer". We'll know, and you'll know, and future generations can boggle at your crypticness.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
And then the fandom will find me and lynch me for being mean.
It'd probably be worth it, though.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
No, the Giant Cats in Emily's story (notice how I make it hers? ) are, like, really bus-sized big, and they keep the humans (yes, the entire cast) as pets.
Ah. Okay, that's not canonical, then.

"Many thanks to the Nikita Lady for giving me the courage" People will wonder. Friend, lover, what?(I did start today feeling like the Worst Writer in The World. Thanks, Nikita Lady.)

I just have to wonder, though, what folks in the other fandoms think of some of the things we come up. "And there's this one writer, first she turned Giles into a vampire, and he and Spike are doing the wacky--no, really!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, Dana's in the fandom. She's an insider, horrified.

And then the fandom will find me and lynch me for being mean.
That'd be new. I mean, they've already tried to lynch us for talking about other fandoms and for being boring enough to blog.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
And being part of the EVIL CABAL that tries to run the fandom.

I know that what's left of the Homicide fandom considers me to be a slightly amusing eccentric freak. But I'm a freak with new stories so they put up with me.

Hey, so here's a thing. A good friend of mine from XF and Farscape (Fialka, for those of you who care) recently fell into Xena bigtime. I blame the BBC or something, which was apparently rerunning the series nightly. She's all about the dark kickass women, so it was not completely unexpected.
At any rate, she's now written a couple of stories and she's at a complete loss as to where to post them. Is there even a fandom anymore? Where do people read Xenaverse stuff?
She's very good, by the way.
