"I always thought 'slash' referred to taking existing characters from other properties and having those characters have sex."

And purists still use the term only in that fashion. However, there are now so many original fiction writers (i.e. non-fan-fiction writers) who are publishing stories in the slash community that the term "original slash" is sometimes used to refer to their works. As somebody pointed out above, these same stories, if published elsewhere, magically become gay fiction.
