The Organization for Transformative Works is having their membership drive from now until October 16th. Either renew or make new your membership–minimum donation $10 and you get to post a pretty little badge on your website. How bad is that, amirite?

I’m a firm believer in the ideals of the OTW. A lot of big time writers and movie producers turn their noses up at the idea of their fans using their worlds, but it’s not like they’re making any money at it. Believe me.

If someone loves your world(s) and ideas so much that they want to continue the story where you left off, or even go back and rework a scene or two, what’s the big deal? Plus, I think anyone should be flattered that someone loves their writing/TV show/movie so much that they want to play around in the world you create. Why? Because not only is it incredibly ego-stroking, but it’s like free advertising.

Personally, I’ve been scouring the Internet for some fanfic of my work. It’s not like I’m giving up my copyright or anything and as long as the content is original and the fanficcer isn’t making a profit… what’s the dealio? Still, 🙁 Nobody loves me though. No fanfic for me.

Still, here’s their link OTW logo: red circle with an arrow. Text reads: Organization for Transformative Works Membership Drive October 9-16, 2011

I will admit to my secret love for “Corky Romano,” “Dude, Where’s My Car?” and “Grandma’s Boy.”

There. I have revealed my most secret shame. Other comedy movies I enjoy: “Super Troopers,” “Hot Fuzz,” “Fido,” “Shaun of the Dead,” “Jay and Silent-Bob Strike Back,” “There’s Something About Mary,” and “Blades of Glory.”

I am obviously the perfect girl for someone out there. Unfortunately, he’s only 15-years old and I would go to jail.

Also, why do DVDs do that thing where if you pick the wrong choice–Rated or Unrated–you can’t go back and re-choose? I just had to eject the DVD so I could reload it so I could choose again. AGONY! Or when they make it so you can’t fast-forward passed their little messages and stuff. I wanna watch the movie, not be forced to learn some stupid lesson.

Another funny movie: “Sex-Drive.” Not one of my favorites, but parts of it really made me laugh. Kind of like “Superbad.”

I am so exhausted. We spent hours searching for my dad’s dog last night. I didn’t go to bed until nearly four in the morning. Then at like five-something she came back on her own.

She was just sitting outside the door, panting and doggy grinning like she hadn’t done anything wrong.

*PUNT*

Though you’re really not supposed to do that to any dog that’s not your own. Even if she totally deserves it and is the perfect size to get some good air. That’s just wrong… *PUNT*
