Personally, I find it... I don't know, uncomfortable when fanfiction authors publish their works under different character names. I feel like if the idea originated from something else, publishing it's just taking someone else's ideas and spouting them as your own. I know that all ideas are pretty much the same, but with fanfic, you write them BECAUSE of a particular fandom; that's where it originates. I don't know how it works legally, but I don't like it.
The fact that the book is quite rubbish... Well, that's a whole other issue. Although, I'm glad women are comfortable enough with their sexuality to read the thing, it's one of the few pros I see from this debacle.
And YES we are normal, quite lovely people, if I do say so myself. xD
