The spokesman for the Christopher Little literary agency said: "JK Rowling's reaction is that she is very flattered by the fact there is such great interest in her Harry Potter series and that people take the time to write their own stories. Her concern would be to make sure that it remains a non-commercial activity to ensure fans are not exploited and it is not being published in the strict sense of traditional print publishing."
He said writers had to ensure that the stories were not obscene and were credited to the author and not to JK Rowling. He said: "The books may be getting older, but they are still aimed at young children. If young children were to stumble on Harry Potter in a an x-rated story, that would be a problem."
