Line 118:
Seeking to shine a light on the nature of fanfiction writing and critiquing, Wild created [[the CRAPPIES]] anti-awards for fanfiction, which were held in early 2005 and 2006. The CRAPPIES encountered a lot of criticism on both sides, with some fans saying it went too far, while others saying that it did not go far enough. Because Wild meant for the CRAPPIES to shine a light on the excesses of fanfics that were widely considered "good," fans like CINCGREEN felt that she was just giving already popular writers more exposure, while ignoring the truly bad ones. Wild countered that truly bad fanfic authors deserved no exposure, good or bad, and that the CRAPPIE awards were meant to instill humility in fanfic authors. Wild oversaw the 2004 CRAPPIE awards, while [[RLobinske]] and [[Quiverwing]] (then nmorgendorffer) oversaw the 2005 CRAPPIES, with Wild's input. By early 2007, however, Wild realized that she had read little fanfic from 2006 and was too busy to hold the anti-awards, and decided to discontinue them.
Wild's current project with [[S.C.]] and [[RedlegRick]] is a full-length animated Daria episode. Wild and S.C. collaborated to write the script in late 2006 and early 2007.
