XD That actually makes me think of Darth Vader running around with a pink, frilly purse and smacking people with it.

Tomoe's ♥♥ FanFiction Writer's Meme ♥♥
Doing this for Original, rather than Fan. fiction. =3
1. How about a brief introduction of yourself?
I'm a 19 (20 in a month) year old college student going for a premed degree and I shouldn't have as much time on my hands as I do. But, oh well. I'm pretty quiet, but tend to be blunt/strange when I do speak. I'm nearly a true introvert, not because of shyness (though, that tends to help), but because I really don't mind being alone. Ironically enough, I have a hard time communicating with others, even though I enjoy writing.
2. Fabulous! And what got you into fanfiction to begin with?
A friend of mine got me into fanfiction when I was just starting 9th grade. I got hooked for a looong time, then panned away (because of Sturgeon's Law) and found original fiction online. I fell in love and left the (mostly) crappy fanfiction writers behind. I don't regret my years of fanfic reading and I appreciate those artists for paving the way to original online works.
3. I see, so what kind of fanfiction do you like to write?
I don't. I write originals and it tends to vary. I have several crack-like fics, several slash fics, and a smattering of others. I mostly like the slash though.
4. Do you tend to write the same pairings/characters? Or are you a fandom whore?
I create new pairings almost always and jump around like crazy from genre to genre, though I stick mainly to modern (I want to do more fantasy, but I need to work on that).
5. What is your more popular fanfic and why do you think people like it so?
My most popular is Tied Up and Passed Around, probably because it has bondage, gay sex, is under Erotic, and is rated Adult++.
6. Forget other people, what is the fanfic you've written you're most proud of?
I'm most proud of the most popular one since it's one of the few that turned out very long. My goal is to get a chapter story up.
7. Do you find writing easy? Hard? What are the most difficult aspects of writing you struggle with?
Difficult. I can come up with ideas, but most get trashed since I don't want to write cliches. Once I have an idea, I struggle to get it out of my head and on paper/computer since my brain sees half-formed pictures of the scene and I have to write the entire thing in words. Even through that, though, I enjoy writing and wouldn't stop (the bunnies wouldn't let me anyway). ^^
8. Write a few sentences of so of your favorite pairing or character.
Don't have any, sorry.
9. Are there any fanfiction trends/clichés you can't stand or are just sick of?
Guys that act like women in slash stories. And the typical 'oh the bottom has to be soo much smaller and less useful than the top!' mentality.
10. Are you guilty of any of the fanfiction trends/clichés you now hate? Or any other ones?
I try not to. That's why I have a male beta my slash so I don't fall for those trends. =3
11. What was the first fandom you wrote for? Do you still like/participate in it?
I don't/didn't.
12. Name your OTPs or most frequently written pairings/characters and explain what it is about them you love to write.
I don't.
13. What would you call your writing "style"?
Casual. I write like I talk. The problem with that is I tend to leave out description, so I have to work on it more.
14. Do you read other people's fanfic? If so, what do you find yourself reading the most?
I rarely read any fanfiction anymore, but I do read other people's original fiction. I exclusively read slash, except for challenge prompts and stuff like that.
15. Name one thing you'd LOVE to write, but have been too afraid or shy to do.
I haven't found anything I'm too shy/afraid to write. Just stuff that I haven't developed enough to write. I'm working on those. =]
16. Do you have trouble taking criticism? Or worse yet, do you have the dreaded bloated ego?
Gawd no! I demand to know what's wrong so I can fix it as immediately as I can! I have the farthest from a 'bloated ego' as you can get. I post my stuff praying that someone will tell me it's decent (and let me know what to change) so I can keep the will to write!
17. When you write, is there anything that helps? Music? Quiet room? Repairing toaster ovens?
It changes constantly. Recently I need quiet and constant 'up and down' trips out of my computer chair so I can think.
18. What inspires you?
Random crap. My dreams, random thoughts, the shower, my friends' conversations, etc. The list goes on!
19. Lastly, how would you sum up your fanfiction experiences and yourself as a writer?
Inexperienced for the writer part, but I'm working to get better. My fanfiction experience was great when it first started and it got me into my true section of AFF. ^^ I wouldn't change that for anything.
20. Tag some friends, because they'll have you for it.
Nearly everyone I know on here has already done this...

Well, I know that for slash stories, since most of those authors are screaming yaoi fangirls, they get their ideas from yaoi. There are A LOT of those douche characters in yaoi plots that have everyone falling head over heels for them, including the pathetic main character(unless they, themselves, are the main character, but that's pretty rare). Those same fans tend to forget that the story lines they read from this genre are from Japan, where they have a completely different social upbringing from those of us in the U.S. (I would mention the rest of the western world, but I've never been anywhere else, so I'm not going to speak for them.)
Japan is all about the community. They're brought up to think about the good of the whole, completely different from the individualistic upbringing of nearly every American out there. They use there writing and games and tv to express urges that wouldn't be acceptable in public. EVER. Most yaoi fans don't take this into consideration when they read the unrealistic plots and characters. And they don't take into consideration the culture that writes them.
Now, I don't want to make any excuses for these slash writers. I'm an avid yaoi fangirl myself, but I know the difference between the U.S. and Japan and what's usually accepted in literature. (Of course, since it's pretty hard to find homoerotic literature out there, I'm no expert on our stuff either.) These specific slash writers just go with what they see often and don't think that, maybe, they have a gross misunderstanding of what's normal in literature.
For any other genre, I have no clue. Maybe the same idea? But I kind of doubt that.

I want to do this! There's one problem though...I don't write fanfiction...

You're very right, wanderingaddict, about the female/emotion thing. And I want to argue that not all females are like that, but I can't. At least, not well, considering I only have a small sample of women who think logically (including myself) to go by.
Going specifically on the slave example (or truth), I think that's not just female's gushing over sex=love. It's also that VERY few people can do a M/s story correctly, which saddens me. I LOVE M/s stories, but I'm turned off of them for now since, like, NO ONE can do a good one (excluding pittwitch)! D:
Speaking as a female: Not all of us always like the typical female/male falling in love with dominating, sex-addicted, asshole/partner. Granted, I do enjoy these every now and then, but I mostly enjoy when a story is well-written, the plot makes sense, and the characters are realistic.
I think the main problem is that most of the writers that those types of stories are brain-washed by the media to believe that all, or most, relationships are like that, or that it's acceptable. I also think that many of them are fresh out of high school and haven't had a real relationship, getting most of their research from books, movies, tv, and elsewhere.
