For the fanfic meme 9, 11 and 12 please.
9. What do your fic bookmarks say about you?
Mostly, they say that I am bad at remembering to bookmark things I enjoyed. ;) I wind up having to go back to my reading history a lot.
11.What kind of relationships are you most interested in writing?
I like relationships that are complicated by the characters’ inability (or refusal) to see each other clearly. I prefer “realizing we are in love” to “falling in love.”
I also like to write stories where the characters are committed to each other and the conflict comes from some other source, aka “we are on our honeymoon and super in love but this trip has been a disaster.”
12. For E-rated fic, what are some things your characters keep doing?
I don’t write E-rated fic. I mean, it’s subjective, but there is a fine line and I always seem to fall on the M side rather than the E side. I’ve come to realize that I don’t enjoy writing really graphic sex; every time I’ve tried has resulted in something resembling IKEA instructions.
One thing my characters keep doing in sex scenes is not using protection. This is because I find it difficult to maintain good pacing in a sex scene, so if there isn’t a natural spot to mention it, I just don’t. Someone almost always comments on it, but honestly, it’s fiction and I’m not @indiefic so no one’s getting pregnant.
