Thirty Days of Fanfiction: Day Eleven

11 – Genre – do you prefer certain genres of fic when you're writing? What kind do you tend to write most?

Is 'two people sit in a room having a conversation' a genre? Because if it is, that is by far my favourite one *g*. Fandom uses the word 'genre' in many ways, so I'm not sure if this is talking about fannish genres (het, slash, gen, angst, etc.) or non-fannish genres like 'comedy' and 'romance'.

Since - humor aside - most of my stories don't fit comfortably into any non-fannish genres, maybe I'll answer the first question instead. According to my stats on ff.net, I have posted ninety-nine gen stories, thirty-four slash stories and twenty het stories. There are also five that fall into more than one of those categories, two that I filed under other, and one femslash drabble. (It was a Chrstimas present for a friend.) So, unsurprisingly almost two-thirds of what I've written is gen, with the rest unevenly divided between different types of 'ships. Sometimes I write angst, occasionally I write PWP, and sometimes I write comedy. I have a fondness for alternative universes and I love crossovers.
