Also, I'm planning some Sci-fi/Fantasy novels to write as well. I have ideas (one of them based on Harry Potter-verse). Hopefully, I'll start on those whenever I finish my first fanfiction on my sig.
LOL I always thought I needed mecha knowledge. Problem is I would prefer having mecha knowledge anyway. I can actually write sappy romance. Done it before, but I don't like writing it much. I prefer writing magical battles with magical creatures and dramatic effect, but no one reads that. I must be weird. But it's true that the fandom prefers sappy romance with either angst or humor. My most reviewed fic is a complete evidence of that... The last chapter posted produced 20 reviews and I almost had a heart attack, while my Adventure fic produces like 2 reviews per chap.

Maybe I can go for sappy Athrun/Cagalli One-shots and then I'll shoot myself for writing those.

Edit: I'm gonna check out your fic as soon as I have some free time. Will save it in Story Alert.
