Oh gosh wow you've been writing for some time now :faint: Yeah, but I can't bear to look back and read the early stuff because it's so awful! I think I was about 15 when I wrote it, so it's pretty bad!
I too joined the fandom circuit through fanfiction.net. I know most people trash talk ff.net but honestly its a great way for beginners to dive in and get their feet wet without fearing being mocked for learning how to write. I think at the time I wasn't aware anything else existed. I was (and still am) a huge fan of Mary Hoffman's YA Stravaganza series, and she had a link on the books' homepage to its page on ff.net, and that just stuck in my mind when I came to write my S2 finale fix-it-fic. I much prefer LJ for posting fic now, but I like having all my stuff in one place so I keep posting at FF.
I admit I tend to ship Robin with Isabela and Guy/Marian myself *blushes* Oh same now! I started off shipping Robin/Marian, but I think by the time the show had finished I had jumped ship :P And that's about when I started shipping Robin/Isabella too. Nowadays I don't ship R/M unless it's in a pre-series teenage scenario, because I just don't see it otherwise.
I would like to start writing Marian/Guy fic but am nervous about my portrayals of those two. lol If you'd ever like a beta-reader for RH fic I'd be happy to help! :D
