For me, it has always been two different sorts of satisfaction. Fiction, and especially genre fiction is often described as a great big conversation. For me, original stories are what happens when I look at a work and say "I respectfully disagree." Fanfiction is what happens when I look at a work and say "Oh yes, yes that's it!" They're very different feelings, but I love both, and both are a response to something else.
