Poll: When fan fiction meets real life, what happens?

[thefourthvine]

In America at this time of year, we get extremely used to answering invasive questions from total strangers. So I thought I'd conduct a poll that could yield potentially interesting results.

Basically, I'm curious about how you handle the interaction between your real life and your fan life; as someone who just recently invited a real-life, pre-fandom friend to view this rather fannish LJ, I find this a topic of relevance right now. And it's sure less depressing than all the political polls I've been reading.

I meant to ask - how did that go?

There is one RL person that I would like to introduce to fan fiction, but since as far as I know she doesn't even know it exists, I'm not sure how to bring it up without making an Important and Awkward Announcement.
