I know a few published authors who write fanfics XD;;
And regarding what you said about fanfic-writing, I couldn't agree more. It's true that some fanfic authors especially those preteens ones oftentimes just recklessly use existing characters without thinking much about canon settings and characterization. BUT NOT ALL OF US ARE LIKE THAT!! There ar also A LOT of fanfic authors who, as you said there, BOTHER with details like canon characterisations and setting, and also struggling with the established characterizations when we put them into a non-canon ituations. It took a lot of efforts, sometimes, it's so difficult that when your reader said you did well and the fic was IC, you'd explode with joy. Right? And in that regard, writing fanfics are, in a way, more difficult thatn creating your own story. Becuse as you said, anything tha you do with your own story will be canon anyway.
Seriously, when I read that comment yesterday, I thought I'd explode in anger. Blah. :(
