NEW YORK — 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.

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.

Breaking news from Canada and around the world sent to your email, as it happens.

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).”
