Check out this awesome article about fan culture and why it's so unfortunate that reporters keep asking actors about fanfiction.  It has some interesting statistics and thoughts about why so much slash fic gets written.  I'll warn diehard fans that Benedict Cumberbatch is quoted in a less than awesome light- if you're sensetive, be ready.

Also, Orlando Jones gets nod, which is nice.  He may not be able to make up for all the actors being really hostile about fanfiction out there, but sometimes it seems like he's trying.

I agree with so much of it to. And fanworks are so important. Sooner or later I think that's going to be recognized by people who don't produce them, but it's hard being in this period before it is.
