I've never seriously looked into fan fiction.

I came across some Harry Potter "erotic" fan fiction years ago. There is not enough brain bleach.

You're not missing much. There's an occasional rough diamond to be found, but much like real life mining, you have to sift tons of dreck to find each one.

This thread does remind me of Tina on Bob's Burgers, though. She's always going on about the fanfiction she writes.

I occasionally find something actually worth reading there but by and large, there's a good reason these people aren't professional authors.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I will always remember the dialogue between Sam and Dean from Supernatural when they encountered fanfiction about the Supernatural books.
Paraphrased, of course.
*Sam reads a section of one with strong gay overtones between them*
Dean, "They do know we're brothers?"
Sam, "It doesn't seem to matter!"
