It's sometimes been said that authors write the stories they want to read. Do you write the same things you like to read, be it in terms of pairing, genre, fandom, whatever?
Most of what I write is for exchanges, so I'm writing for a particular recipient and trying to match their taste. In that way, I'm not writing what I like to read (not that I think I'd dislike any of what I write if I came upon it written by someone else) but rather what specific other people like to read. When I'm not writing for an exchange, I think I do tend to write what I'd like to read. There are, of course, things I like to read that I can't write to save my life. I enjoy reading humor, for example, but can't write it at all.
