Some of
lois_welling's TOSfic from printzine days is now available on AO3. Her Fanlore entry is here.
The Displaced and its sequels may be her best-known works. IIRC, there was a fuss about self-insertion when those stories were published in zine format. Perhaps that's not as much of an issue for present-day fans, who are used to seeing intentionally written readerfic?
Regardless, it's always good to find the classic stories (and tropes) preserved so that new readers can discover the writers who paved the way in fanfic.
