Meet Fifty Shades is available to read offline free from Smashwords.
I would ask that it is not posted anywhere else such as wattpad, scribd or Goodreads, as it's not possible for me to maintain these unauthorised copies with edits and updates. However, I'm happy for anyone to post a link directing readers here to download the most up to date copy for themselves.
To Download:
- Open the link on your iPhone or iPad and select the epub version to open in iBooks
- If you are able, open the link on your Kindle device or the Kindle App on any phone or tablet and select the mobi version (Kindle App can easily be downloaded for free to any device)
- Otherwise, download the PDF Version to your computer and follow the instructions below to download to a Kindle:

If you have enjoyed reading this free version of Meet Fifty Shades, can I ask that you consider making a small contribution to charity, as a way of showing your appreciation?
Some of the deserving causes that I would suggest are Cancer Research, The Alzheimer's Society, or any children's charity such as Smile Train, which helps children born with a cleft lip and palate. Otherwise, please feel free to make a donation to other deserving charities that you support.
You are truly amazing!! First of all, I have been reading your story since I found it just about 3 years ago & I absolutely love it. I don't know how Erika is going to do better than this! I just downloaded your updated version to my kindle & I can't thank you enough for the step-by-step directions...I would have never figured that one out!!
ReplyDeleteThanks again!

Hi Barbara - I'm glad you found the instructions helpful. Like most things, it's easy when you know how, but not so great when you don't!
DeleteOne question.(.I finally find it because the story is not on wattpad)..actually 2 questions...Did you sell your story to mrs James or did she steel it from you...because her Grey book is almost 1-1 with yours and I dont believe in coincidence...I read your story long time ago..and what a dissapointment when read Grey and realise is your story...not because is not good your story.. is great..( i read it twice....lol) but because i wasnt expected this from her...so if you could answer me it will be more apreciated..maybe I had grammar mistakes..sory ..english is not my first language.
ReplyDeleteHi there - I have no connection with E L James! I guess it's inevitable that as we were working from the same story, there were always going to be a lot of similarities :)
DeleteHi. Thanks to share this pdf for free.
ReplyDeleteI'd be very happy if we can have chat on email
My email: rabithaajengs@gmail.com , you can call me bitha ^^
Thank you ��
I really enjoyed this story and your version of Christian's POV. Thank you so writing it and sharing it freely. One question I have though, is I wonder why you started your story at the place you did instead of earlier. Is there a particular reason you didn't start when Ana falls into his office? Or even before that?
ReplyDeleteE L James wrote the first two chapters from Christian's pov at the end of Freed, so I pick up where she left off. Hope this clarifies. :)
DeleteHi I completely agree with Anonymous June 26. I read your version two years ago and forwarded it to all my friends as a brilliant read. it smashed her books to pieces. you wrote what we would all hoped Christian was like so very well. I picked up a copy of GREY out of curiosity and I was really annoyed by the way it was in my opinion, your book but badly edited and written. I actually thought you had sold out your talent to her but I can see it was a complete copy. I haven't read your other books (apologies) but I will now. There's not one person in my group who has read it that doesn't feel the same as me. It's a shame and I feel upset for you. I really feel that I have to say something about this and if James ever reads this blog, which I suspect she has given GREY, I hope that the recognition comes to you as a writer far more than she deserves. Good luck and thank you for your website.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words. I did spend a lot of time writing Meet Fifty Shades, so it's nice to be appreciated :)
DeleteI would like to thank you for your blog and must add that your blog is written so much better than 'Grey' by E L James...wish you would write a blog from Ana's point of view as it would probably be better as well!!!!!!! Thank you and hope you have a happy and healthy 2016, Deb xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Deb - Thanks for taking the time to let me know you enjoyed reading my blog. Best wishes for 2016 :)
DeleteElla es "Snowqueens Icedragon" ahora conocida como E.L James..Que mas puedes pedirle??? Por favor no olviden que 50 shade nacio de la serie de Twilight y no es de sorprender que por aqui y alla veas similitud en las dos historias o sea su 50 y Twilight...Yo he leido tu version de esta historia 2 veces y dejame decirte que me encanto!! Tu tienes mas talento en tus dedos que ella en todo ella...Una amiga me presto su copia de Grey y vaya si me lleve tremenda sorpresa...Me dije ya esto yo lo he leido antes...Me pregunte sera que ella le vendio su historia a E.L??? Pero leyendo arriba veo que no fue asi...la verision de Grey de E.L. James es tu historia...Todo lo que lei hace casi dos años atras es lo mismo que ella recien saco en Grey...No te da credito como la escritora original de "Grey" Deberia darle verguenza...Todo el que a leido tu version y compara las fechas de publicacion se dara cuenta de quien es quien...
ReplyDeleteTe deseo los mejor como persona y como escritora...Eres brillante!!!
P.S. Excuse me for not writing in English but my knowledge of English does not reach that level...
P.S.S. I understand what I read in English but can't write and that frustrates me.
Hi there - I'm glad you enjoyed 'Meet Fifty Shades'- it's always nice to get positive feedback in any language! :)
DeleteI remember reading this story/blog years and years ago, as you were writing it! I absolutely loved it then and I remember how excruciatingly exciting it was waiting on chapters from you day to day!! I don’t know what made me think of it, but I started searching for you today (it took me a half hour to find this because I couldn’t for the life of me remember) and I’m sooo excited!!! I just downloaded it and can’t wait to start it again! And that’s a huge compliment to your writing! To have fans come back almost 6 years later to reread! E.L. James made a phenomenal story, but your continuance from Christians POV is just as amazing! And to be honest I prefer your “Grey” version!! Kudos and Blessings!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks, Ashley. Hard to believe so much time has gone by, isn't it? Hope you enjoyed reading it just as much this time around :)
