jeriendhal6 – When you write, do you prefer writing male or female characters?
As a choice, I prefer female characters. That doesn't mean I'm much better at writing them [1] but I do enjoy them a bit better than males, mostly I think do to an early attraction to smart, tough females courtesy of Robert A. Heinlein.
[1] I developed a habit in a series of Terinu fanfics of stuffing poor Leeza into a prison cell before the story proper got going, just to get her out the way since I wasn't confident in my ability to write her. She was not amused
