... To write original fiction that doesn't give a frack about marketable plotlines and which isn't suspiciously similar to things I've already seen. This means that any romance that goes on comes up because I'm halfway through writing and I realize that characters have chemistry, (this has actually earned the appreciation of a few people... who wish it would happen more often, but eh,) and that if I have a plot that could have been standard, I try and do something to make it funny, interesting, point out problems with the genere, or crossed with another genre.

I haven't written much fandom in a while, but I usually stick to things that would be plausible as "forgotten episodes," or cut chapters, or stuff about minor characters. I usually figure that if I don't pay attention to the vast body of fandom's strange ideas about characters, I'll do better. Though I do check if my plotbunnies are just migratory things from a fic I read a couple weeks ago or if they're the real thing.
