EL James Takes 50 Shades Of Heat On Twitter
Twitter had a bit of fun Monday at the expense of EL James.
The hashtag “AskELJames” trended nationwide as the “Fifty Shades of Grey” writer took questions, including some not-ready-for-prime-time doozies, but surely she’s immune at this point to hurt feelings.
Among the printable, cheeky queries:
#AskELJames here’s a concept for you: mega rich author abuses English language. It falls for her. You can steal my idea too

It’s pretty telling that some of the most upset people on #AskELJames are female authors and abuse victims. Way to go EL.

#AskELJames I need advice on making a BIG romantic gesture. Should I put a GPS tracker in her phone and make threats if she tries to leave?

WATCH: EL James: Is She Happy With The ‘Fifty Shades’ Movie?
For those under rocks, James authored three books in an erotic trilogy involving BDSM sex between a handsome, emotionally damaged billionaire and a young woman whom he introduces to his rough-sex lifestyle. She recently put out a fourth book that tells the story of the first book all over again from Christian Grey’s point of view rather than that of Anastasia Steele.
Oh, and there was a movie. Oh, and at least two more movies are planned.

James let loose among questions she did answer that she has written another book and is halfway through yet another, adding:
“Both romances. Not sure when I will finish them. (smiley face).”
