Article in The Guardian about fanfiction

I just found this article in the Guardian online about fanfiction, mostly with reference to Fifty Shades, but with a general overview of 'the history' of fanfiction

Comments

Just been reading this, and the many comments. I see our very own steamshovelmama spoke up. Good for her! :-) The article writer doesn't seem to have done a lot in the way of research and is rightly getting it in the neck from many commentators for his misconceptions.

Oooh, I didn't get that far in the comments thread, I might have to go back for another look.

There are *so many* innacuracies, it's no wonder people have jumped on hm!

There are some sizable berks among the commentators, too, but at least some of them have the excuse of not trying to write about fanfic in a well-respected newspaper!
