There’s a whole story here about fan culture and celebrities, and also what happens when authors don’t have to worry about what happens next. No sooner had J.K.Rowling mentioned at a reading in New York that Dumbledore was gay than the Dumbledore Pride site is selling the T-shirts - 7,000 before you can even get your wand out.

As Jason Kottke pointed out in his blog - the fan fiction floodgates are surely about to open. If Dumbledore, then who else?
