To all Good Omens Library authors

Jul 18, 2013 20:29

As you know, I have decided to close The Good Omens Library website. However, I have also contacted the Organization for Transformative Works (OTW) for help in moving the GO Library’s content to a collection on the multi-fandom archive they maintain, the Archive of Our Own (AO3), and set up automatic redirects for any future readers following old links. (Specifically, I will be working with the Open Doors committee. You can read about one of their recent import projects at this link.)



Here is where I would like to ask for your help!
1. If you would NOT like your stories moved, please send me your GO Library pseud(s) and e-mail address(es) so that we will not add them. (If you would not mind them being preserved but do not want your name attached to them any longer, please me know that too-we can orphan your stories instead of leaving them behind to be deleted.)

2. If you already have an AO3 account and have posted your Good Omens stories there, please let me know your GO Library pseud(s) and e-mail address(es) as well, so that we won’t import your stories. (We can also e-mail you instructions for mass-adding stories to the new collection on the AO3.)

3. If you don’t already have an AO3 account but would like one to import your stories yourself, please let me know your GO Library pseud(s), and the preferred e-mail address to send the AO3 invite to. (We can e-mail further instructions for importing stories and adding them to the new collection on the AO3.)
We’ll be collecting responses over the next two weeks before we start moving stories. As we import stories, the AO3 will automatically e-mail invitations to claim the stories to the address you used to register with the GO Library. (If you know of any authors that no longer have access to that e-mail address, please tell them to contact me directly.) When all stories have been accounted for, the Open Doors committee will set up the URL redirects, and I will permanently close down the site.
Please let me know if you have any questions, and thanks for eight awesome years!
