Do your friends/family in real life know that you write fan fiction?

I've told my Mom... when I made a t-shirt for PJ night on the cruise, she didn't understand it. I tried to explain, but I think she forgets.
My friends at work know.... one of my best guy friends that I used to work with accidentally opened up MC one night when I left it logged in on my computer at work and read some. My cousin's daughter knows, who follows me on Twitter. She was saying how she dreamed of One Direction three nights in a row and I told her I used to do the same thing, which led me to write fan fiction.
I'm not really ashamed of it. *shrugs* If it weren't for getting involved in fan fiction, I would have never went back to college for English, which led me to do what I'm doing today.

One year for Christmas she sent me a 00Carter - Drums doll she made lmfao. I loved it and it's beside my "Magic Turtle" on my computer desk. My mom saw it though once so then I had to explain everything, including the concept of fanfiction. She's the only one who knows though.
Everyone else just knows I write.

Very similar reason why I eventually told my sister. Mersey sent me a build a bear lion dressed in fishing gear and made me a fly fishing type card that referenced the story and had Kevin & Nick's picture on it. She was confused about why I would get something fishing related since I've never fished in my life lol so I finally spilled the beans.

LOL I've gotten questions like that over stuff I've gotten from online friends too, the stuff I don't hide. I'm always just like, "Oh, it's an inside joke." When I was writing the post-choppage part of Broken, I had a Ren & Stimpy icon on AIM because of the whole "Ren & Stumpy" joke, and my mom was chatting with me on there (while I was away at college) and asked about the icon, and I was just like, "Oh, don't you remember Ren & Stimpy? I loved that show!" So she bought me a Ren & Stimpy t-shirt for Christmas that year LOL. I really did like that show... but maybe not THAT much LOL.
