As a fellow writer of fanfic, I can (of course) only agree with your essay. It provided me with a nice template and several sandboxes from which to test my creativity without having to be responsible for building up every single aspect of the world(s) in which I was playing. That's useful on so many levels. :)

The "what if"-factor is one of the most inspiring things for fanfiction. How often do we think "what if" after reading a book or watching a movie or an episode of a tv series? And it's one of the things that brings people to table-top roleplaying - in a campaign of Game of Thrones or Star Wars, you can explore the world and the people in it.
But fanfiction is still far from being mainstream. Tell people you write short stories or poetry - totally accepted by most people. But tell them about fanfiction and the muggles look at you like an exhibit at the cabinet of curiosities ;)
And reading fanfiction improved my English. Reading stories and wondering "is that correct?", finding all the "their" and "there" and "they're" in a wild mix, all that helped me in simply writing: even if I don't find the best term for things, people get what I want to say.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with fanfic. A lot of authors got their start that way. Don't forget as well that the 50 Shades series started out as a Twilight fic(yes, I know).

You wrote the two bad words: The "T" one and the even worse one starting with the number!

Successful and good are two different things in that particular case. ☺
