Man, J.K. Rowling's the only one with sense.

How your favorite authors feel about fan-fiction.

I'm just going to leave my response riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight here.

Meanwhile, I learned something new today; If an author can write "Twilight" fanfiction, swap out the names and become published (Ex. 50 Shades of Gray, which has a friggin' movie deal), my writing has a chance of making it out there too.

J.K. Rowling's response reminds me of one of the very first fanfic I ever read, which introduced me to porn and slash all in the same sort of horribly disorienting/confusing moment. orz. IT WAS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE, let's say. So it's okay J.K. Rowling, those who will stumble across Harry/Draco porn are probably old enough to handle it, and if they're not old enough to handle it, what are their parents even doing allowing them to wander around the big bad Internet all by themselves :(?

My first time reading porn on the Internet was... hoo boy. XDDD;;; Knowing Harry Potter fandom, chances are it's already WAY too late for many 12-year-olds. :P
