The major distinction between fanfic and a story inspired by another story is that the story a fanfic is based on has one or more "official" versions, usually owned by a company, a creator, or both. Thus, things like <em><a class='urllink' href='http://www.earlychristianwritings.com/text/infancythomas-a-mrjames.html'>The Infancy Gospel of Thomas<img src="https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/external_link.gif" height="12" width="12" style="border:none;" /></a></em>, a piece of biblical apocrypha featuring <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CharacterizationTags' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CharacterizationTags' data-format='W1tDaGFyYWN0ZXJpemF0aW9uVGFncyBBbmdyeSFVYmVyIV1d'>Angry!Uber!</a>Baby Jesus, or variations on <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Myth/ArthurianLegend' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Myth/ArthurianLegend' data-format='TXl0aC9BcnRodXJpYW5MZWdlbmQ='>Arthurian Legend</a> where there is no Holy Grail and Lancelot's affair with Guinevere never happens, would not "count" by this definition. </p><p>No statement on the legality of fanfic, based on works still under copyright, has ever been given in American formal law or in its courts. The two most common arguments for fanfic being legal involve either implied consent — companies and authors have every right to enact a <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FanWorkBan' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FanWorkBan' data-format='RmFuV29ya0Jhbg=='>Fan-Work Ban</a> as evidenced by <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Platform/FanFictionDotNet' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Platform/FanFictionDotNet' data-format='UGxhdGZvcm0vRmFuRmljdGlvbkRvdE5ldA=='>FanFiction.Net</a>'s banlist but are mostly tolerant — or fair use — the non-profit, educational and transformative use of the work justifies its existence; see <a class='urllink' href='http://digitalcommons.lmu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1347&context=elr'>"Legal Fictions: Copyright, Fan Fiction, and a New Common Law"<img src="https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/external_link.gif" height="12" width="12" style="border:none;" /></a>. The first is something of a misunderstanding of how legality works; you would need active permission from the rights holder for fanfics to be legal and silence does not impart permission. The latter is the main argument that sparked the development of the Organization of Transformative Works, a fan labor advocacy site. </p><p>Authors often have conflicted reactions to fan fiction set in "their" universe, which sometimes leads to the aforementioned <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FanWorkBan' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FanWorkBan' data-format='RmFuV29ya0Jhbg=='>Fan-Work Ban</a>. <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/JKRowling' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/JKRowling' data-format='Q3JlYXRvci9KS1Jvd2xpbmc='>J.

He's even gone so far as to threaten legal action should he become aware of any fan fiction set in the Westeros universe. In contrast, writer/journalist James Bow <a class='urllink' href='http://bowjamesbow.ca/2010/05/07/in-defence-of-f.shtml'>makes a rather firm case<img src="https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/external_link.gif" height="12" width="12" style="border:none;" /></a> for supporting fanfics, pointing out that it forms a stepping stone <em>towards</em> creating your own characters and setting. As far as media businesses are concerned, reactions have ranged from <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/ArchieComics' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/ArchieComics' data-format='Q3JlYXRvci9BcmNoaWVDb21pY3M='>Archie Comics</a> demanding immediate removal to <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/Paramount' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/Paramount' data-format='Q3JlYXRvci97e1BhcmFtb3VudH19'>Paramount</a> taking some of the better <em><a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/StarTrek' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/StarTrek' data-format='RnJhbmNoaXNlL1N0YXJUcmVr'>Star Trek</a></em> fanfics and having them published in print books. </p><p>It should probably be noted that several big-name authors are <em>themselves</em> writers of fanfics. Both <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/StephenKing' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/StephenKing' data-format='Q3JlYXRvci9TdGVwaGVuS2luZw=='>Stephen King</a> and <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/NeilGaiman' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/NeilGaiman' data-format='Q3JlYXRvci9OZWlsR2FpbWFu'>Neil Gaiman</a> have written (for example) stories dealing with Cthulhu, Dracula, and Sherlock Holmes, and label these stories fanfics. Contributors to franchises such as <em><a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Series/DoctorWho' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Series/DoctorWho' data-format='U2VyaWVzL0RvY3Rvcldobw=='>Doctor Who</a></em> such as <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/PaulCornell' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Creator/PaulCornell' data-format='Q3JlYXRvci9QYXVsQ29ybmVsbA=='>Paul Cornell</a> have often posted wholly unofficial stories to their blogs and websites, above and beyond their fully licensed scripts and novels. </p><p>Some franchises — such as <em><a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/StarTrek' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/StarTrek' data-format='RnJhbmNoaXNlL1N0YXJUcmVr'>Star Trek</a></em> — have actually turned fan fiction into a profit source by creating <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TieInNovel' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TieInNovel' data-format='e3tUaWUgSW4gTm92ZWx9fXM='>Tie In Novels</a>. These books are usually penned by young and upcoming authors, often former fanfic writers, and represent an intermediate state between fan fiction and completely original fiction. </p><p>In the end, more and more media outlets are recognizing that fan fiction and other fan works are a simple fact of life. And as art imitates life, it's now possible to find <em>fake</em> fan fiction created as part of a marketing campaign. For example, the 2010 season of Showtime's <em><a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Series/UnitedStatesOfTara' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Series/UnitedStatesOfTara' data-format='U2VyaWVzL1VuaXRlZFN0YXRlc09mVGFyYQ=='>United States of Tara</a></em> introduced a new character, an artist who had created and published a comic book character named "Princess Valhalla Hawkwind". As part of the promotional buildup for this, Showtime actually created a <a class='urllink' href='http://www.princessvalhalla.com'>"fan site"<img src="https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/external_link.gif" height="12" width="12" style="border:none;" /></a> complete with fanfic, fan art, and fan video. </p><p>Some fan fiction becomes well-known enough to influence other fanfics, which themselves influence more fanfics, and so on in a domino effect. This can and does result in the creation and perpetuation of <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Fanon' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Fanon' data-format='e3tGYW5vbn19'>Fanon</a> — when one author comes up with a "cool detail" and others blindly copy it without realizing it was a fellow fan's invention and didn't belong to the official source material. Furthermore, characters can become <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Flanderized' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Flanderized' data-format='e3tGbGFuZGVyaXplZH19'>Flanderized</a> by the feedback loops of fan fiction, sometimes <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MemeticMutation' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MemeticMutation' data-format='W1tNZW1ldGljTXV0YXRpb24gY2hhbmdpbmcgZHJhbWF0aWNhbGx5IGZyb20gdGhlaXIgb3JpZ2luYWwgZm9ybV1d'>changing dramatically from their original form</a>. </p><p>Eventually, this accretion of fan-born details and mutations turns into things that "<a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CommonKnowledge' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CommonKnowledge' data-format='W1tDb21tb25Lbm93bGVkZ2UgZXZlcnlib2R5IGtub3dzXV0='>everybody knows</a>" about the series. Those new to or unfamiliar with the original material are frequently confused into believing that it <em>obviously</em> must be <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Canon' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Canon' data-format='e3tjYW5vbn19'>Canon</a> if so many people mention it, even "facts" of the <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EpilepticTrees' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/EpilepticTrees' data-format='RXBpbGVwdGljVHJlZXM='>Epileptic Trees</a> variety. This is especially the case with series that have long runs and which gloss over details which are unimportant to the plot but are of interest to the fans and the fan writers. </p><p>One example is the <em><a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Literature/HarryPotter' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Literature/HarryPotter' data-format='TGl0ZXJhdHVyZS9IYXJyeVBvdHRlcg=='>Harry Potter</a></em> fanfic <em><a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FanFic/TheDracoTrilogy' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FanFic/TheDracoTrilogy' data-format='RmFuRmljL1RoZURyYWNvVHJpbG9neQ=='>The Draco Trilogy</a></em>, which was apparently so widely read that details such as Blaise Zabini being female and Ginny's name being Virginia were taken to be canon, <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OutdatedByCanon' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OutdatedByCanon' data-format='W1tPdXRkYXRlZEJ5Q2Fub24gYWx0aG91Z2ggdGhleSB3ZXJlIGJvdGggcmVmdXRlZCBieSBsYXRlciBib29rc11d'>although they were both refuted by later books</a>. </p><p>Another example of this is the manga/anime <em><a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Manga/RanmaOneHalf' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Manga/RanmaOneHalf' data-format='TWFuZ2EvUmFubWFPbmVIYWxm'>Ranma ½</a></em>, released well before the Internet became ubiquitous and when many fans had no easy access to the original source material.

The process was accelerated and exacerbated by the appearance of fan fiction written by people who had never actually seen the show itself and whose only exposure to <em>Ranma</em> was other fan fiction. </p><p>It's not surprising that fans of some shows occasionally pen <span class='esc-seq' title='non-wikiword'>FAQs</span> solely to reduce the accumulation of <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Fanon' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Fanon' data-format='e3tmYW5vbn19'>fanon</a> in this way. </p><p>Another problem with fan fiction is sometimes writers don't do their research even when it is very simple. A common occurrence is when an author from a country other than the original work's country of origin writes characters as if they are from their own country. An example is <em><a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/HarryPotter' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Franchise/HarryPotter' data-format='RnJhbmNoaXNlL0hhcnJ5UG90dGVy'>Harry Potter</a></em> where non-British writers (particularly American) make characters act and think like an American would; this also happens vice versa as seen in <em><a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Literature/FiftyShadesOfGrey' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Literature/FiftyShadesOfGrey' data-format='TGl0ZXJhdHVyZS9GaWZ0eVNoYWRlc09mR3JleQ=='>Fifty Shades of Grey</a></em>. </p><p>Currently, the largest source of fan fiction on the Net (and probably anywhere else) is the aptly named <a class='twikilink' href='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Platform/FanFictionDotNet' title='/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Platform/FanFictionDotNet' data-format='UGxhdGZvcm0vRmFuRmljdGlvbkRvdE5ldA=='>FanFiction.Net</a>, which as of 2022 offered approximately 14 million stories across all but a select few canons (which were banned due to creator request) and an automated system for posting.
