What's the deal with your nickname? How did you get it? If your nickname is self-explanatory, then tell everyone when you first started using the internet, and what was the first thing that made you say "wow, this isn't just a place for freaks after all?" Was it a website? Was it an email from a long-lost friend? Go on, spill it.
I first came across the word widdershins in a story by Neil Gaiman. I had to look it up and for some reason it stuck in my mind - enough to make me think of it as a username many years later, apparently.
Absolutely no relation to Willy, the punk.
