I'm looking at the text in your secret here, Original Poster, and I have to say that you have a pretty good command of standard written English and that you are able to organize ideas into complete sentences and logical paragraphs.
If you go to some fanfiction repository (fanfiction.net or any other), you will find a lot of people who can't do that. I'll be generous and say only 30%. That puts you ahead of almost a third of the crowd already. That kind of stuff can kill a 'fic that's otherwise a pretty good read. I mean, I read a "Grand Theft Auto" / "Max Payne" crossover that was pretty good in capturing the gritty feel of both universes, but I couldn't finish it because its lack of punctuation made it too difficult to read.
Second, if your work is popular, it's because you tap into something that people like. Maybe it's the characterization, maybe it's your visual imagery, maybe you convey emotions well. I don't know. But, you have managed to hook your audience. That's really all a writer needs to do. Stephanie Meyer was able to tap into women's emotions surrounding adolescent romance fantasies. That's why she was successful.
The only person I know of who was popular specifically because of their horrific work was Ed Wood. Maybe you are Ed Wood; I don't know.
Personally, I would not question your popularity, but rather just take it and run. That is, unless you were trying to figure out what you did right in order to duplicate a sucessful formula. That, I think, might be a better exercise for you. You seem like a person in need of some time spent accentuating the positive.
