Heya, maybe I can offer a little bit of comfort.

I make my living off of ghostwriting, and I've got, hmm, let's say twenty professionally published short stories out there under a personal pen name. I also have a body of ridiculous fanfic that floating out there somewhere. Some of it I still like, some of it is dumb as hell, things like that.

Someone actually tried I think to blackmail me, saying they were going to send my fic to my clients, things like that. Of course because they contacted a defunct email, I didn't get it til maybe seven months after the fact.

Nothing happened, and given the fact that I'm reliable and fast, I'm pretty sure none of my clients would care either. Never ever had any fallout under my own stuff.

Hope that makes you feel better, and geez, whatever fandom you run with sounds tough. If you're really worried, there are ways to scrub your presence from the web and start over. You can always pick a professional name that's a variant on your own, and move on.

If anything, I think fanfic skills would be really useful in ghostwriting.

ANY writing is useful for more writing! I wrote (counts) more than a million words of romance last year, and fanfic was fantastic training for it, after I got the structure down. Before that, I was writing self-help manuals, pet care guides, things like that, and the technical documentation that I had done back at my old gig was the guide for that.

It's all helpful! ^_^

Still pretty awful that someone threatened to blackmail you. If it hadn't been for the email mishap, I imagine it could have caused some stress.
