[edit] Kerfluffles
- Before July 2005, J. K. Rowling had given out no details about Blaise, not even an indication of gender, so fan-fiction authors had free rein to create the character. For example: Blaise as a female or person that switches from male to female at certain times (or of free will). Following the announcement that Blaise was indeed male, there was an explosion of wank. Many fans, including FPB, rose in infamy due to their reactions.[citation needed]
- In October 2009, there was further wank over Blaise's raise after a post in fanficrants about authors still writing the character as white after being identified clearly by Rowling as black.[16] The wank spilled over into sf_drama.[17]
