(Anonymous) 2014-06-26 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)I agree with your basic sentiment, but people can read what they want to read. If they don't want to read published novels it shouldn't matter to anyone other than themselves. If they aren't interested, they aren't interested. For fanfic, you're reading about characters you already love with stories/tropes that do it for you in ways novels might not. It's easy to understand why people stick to fanfiction.
But it's when they put down novels, and people who read novels, claim they are trash or boring, and that fanfiction is so much better and all that, then I can agree with you.
To be fair, it goes both ways. (novel readers who feel they are better than people who only read fanfic).
Point: people like to read what they like to read, who cares! Also, just because you don't like something (a book or fic) doesn't mean it's crap. It means it's not your cup of tea. Other people will love books that you hate. It's subjective.
