No, it's not that. It's just... I fail at writing romantic stuff, but I don't think I would've been able to keep the relationship platonic, as per the comm's rules. Platonic? Pffft, please.
Kink memes are really helpful for that. Because it's anonymous you don't have to worry about the quality of your writing or anyone flaming you. It's good practice. :)
One of my problems is that I'm a perfectionist. I can't get myself to post bad quality fic. If there's a typo in there somewhere, I'll agonise about it endlessly. |: Also. There are no good kink memes around anymore. All the good ones go poof~ inexplicably. =/
I've had. You should see my NaNo novel. It's... horrible. :'D The worst one I've had was spelling Sanzo as Sazno. In my summary. I didn't notice it until weeks later when I sent a link to the fic to my friend who was gaga over Saiyuki. Aaaawkwaard.
There was a Saiyuki one that had a lot of awesome writers (somehow they all seem to get the best ones in that fandom), a YGO one that died on page three with 90% requests and very few fic, another YGO one that got f-locked to the host's journal and it was such fail because it had a lot of awesome fic, and then another all-YGO one that died out before even starting properly. I haven't set foot in any other ones mostly because of the troll invasions that I kept hearing about. Ffft, I sound so sheltered now. xD
