Um, for a start this article is for 2006 people -- I'm not sure why this is of interest now.
The piece sounds fabricated/exaggerated - the author claims she was not involved in porn yet she was clearly happy to appear to be associated with the industry... That's totally the inverse of the norm (women get involved with the industry but DON'T want their true identity to be associated with their work).
Also a quick google of Eve Fairbank's name returns an Urban Dictionary result:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Eve+Fairbanks http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Eve+Fairbanks
"Her writing style is known as Fairbanksing: A gratuitous fabrication in a story when the truth would have served just fine."
She appears to be known to embellish stories that she writes in publications.
- epochwolf 17y agoHow authoritative is Urban Dictionary? (I ask because I don't know, I haven't used it much)
- pmiller2 17y agoUrban Dictionary is essentially Hot or Not for words and phrases. Take that for what you will.
- zackattack 17y agoI would actually like to suggest that wordhate (http://apps.facebook.com/wordhate/ http://apps.facebook.com/wordhate/) is the Hot or Not for words and phrases. Haha
- chris11 17y agoIt's great for slang, but I wouldn't say it has authority in any other area.
- dotBen 17y agoI'm not quoting it an an authority - I'm making the concise point that colloquially she's known for fabricating or over-embellishing her stories. Dude.
