Tao,

I think that Moshe is not correct in this, since node module will
invoke hook_X where hook is defined by the (ill-named) 'module' field
for the node type, or 'node_content' in the case of GUI-defined types.
So, I do think yo need to define your own node type (even as a very
thin wrapper around the node.module functions) in order to be able to
have a custom hook_access().

Subject: Re: [development] allowing some users some days to write stories
Has anyone successfully done this, adding a hook_access for a node type
created through the GUI (in Drupal 5)? I tried this a week or two ago
and couldn't get it working, so I would love to see an example of the
right way to do it.
