Have seen this on a number of LJ's - so I thought I'd give it a go:

Slash Meme Survey




Teh Big Slash meme
Read and/or write?Lots of Both, Baby.
Since when?Lord, since college - Over 10 years. THUD.
How did you stumble into slash?X-Files Fan Fic - What? Mulder's getting off with someone other than Scully? Now that's hot.
Your first fandom and pairing:X-Files - Mulder/Skinner
The first person you told about your new hobby:I didn't, not for years.
The fandoms you read:QAF - UK/US, X-Files, Sentinel, OZ, La Femme Nikita, From Eroica With Love, Buffy/Angel - Anything w/ Spike, Forever Knight, Highlander, Anita Blake

Favourite genres:First Times
Least favourite pairings:Whatever I'm not in the mood for...
Least favourite genres:Some AU's - just depends.
What makes a story good?Uhmm, talent? lol
What makes a story bad?Lack of talent, bad characterization, cheesy dialogue
The best author:Stirring clear of active fandoms, because there's too many to name - I'd say Xanthe.
Why?She's kick ass talented, I read her fics again and again, and she's the reason I started writing because she challenged me to give it a try.
The best story you've ever read:Good lord, as if there were only one best.
The worst author:George W Bush's speech writer.
Why?I'm allergic to anything the man says. And so much of it has a fictional spin.
The worst story you've ever read:Honestly don't remember - it was too bad to remember.
The best story you have written:As a whole? Eek... "Gemini" - "Not Letting Go Series" - "Dream Series"
The worst story you have written:I don't think my fics are "worst" catagories, but I did write dialogue early own that was rather sappy.
Do you leave feedback?Yes, but not in every fandom - bad me.
Do you get feedback?Yes, but there's always room for more...lol.
Do you have a favorite kink?Me like-y, very much. Dom/submission w/o pain.
Does something squick you?Anything involving rape, watersports or incest.
Is slash simply sex?Hell, no. But then some slash is best with sex...lol.
Is slash a way of life?Yep, over a decade does not lie.
How much time do you spend reading/writing?Fucking loads, but I enjoy it - Plus I multitask all the time with other things.
Do you have RL friends who slash?Yes
Have you made online friends through slash?Absolutely
Do you think slash is just a phase?Like being gay? lol - Yeah, a VERY LONG PHASE.
Could you simply stop slashing?Nope - too much fun.
What do you think about...
Ratings G to PG-13Not a fan, unless I know the writer.
Ratings R to NC-17This is where I dwell.
AUsSome are ok/some are real crap.
ARsSome are ok/some are real crap - (is there an echo in here?)
CrackficsHaven't you heard? "Crack is whack." - Wtf is a crackfic?
PornOh baby baby - please may I have some more?
AngstFantastic plot device. Unless its driven into the ground.
MushA little won't kill you, but alot kills the fic.
LoveMakes the world go round, but a hot one off can be just as good a read if written well.
RomanceIn moderation, but not if it's totally out of character.
BDSMHello, can I get a hell yes!?!
DarkficsDark is ok, just need to read it with the lights on...lol.
DeathficsNOT a favorite.
Non consensual/rapeWithout a doubt, do not like. It just feels like a bad omen to spend time on these things.
Rape recoveryNo...
FPSNo...
RPSWell, it's a guilty pleasure in which I don't often indulge. And some take it WAY TOO FAR.
RPGNo...
First timesABSOFUCKINGLUTELY - always a winner!!!
Established relationshipsYes, but mostly only if I've read the First Time Fic - like in a series.
ThreesomesMore toys to play with, but they are a bitch to write.
m/m slashThis IS a slash survey, what the hell do you think? hehe
femmeslashIt's ok, but I don't seek it out. Too occupied with my current m/m fandoms.
Slashing a children's book/movieEwww...
Chanslash As in Jacki? lol, no idea what this is...
Explicit sexThe best kind. I hate reading fics that wuz out on this.
The importance of charactarizationThe life blood of a good fic.
OOCnessNope, I read these fandoms for a reason. Why would I want Stuart to act like someone else but Stuart?
CanonVery important starting place, and then you build from there.
FanonIf you mean it's been written so much in fics that people start to believe it and repeat it - then it does seep in. Like kinks about Stuart's hair and Vince's tummy.
ClichesSome are unavoidable, some are just laziness, some are fun to parody.
SupernaturalDepends on the fandom - if I'm reading about Vamps, hell yes.
MPREGI've actually read a few - but there's not my bread and butter.
WingficsHuh?
GenderfuckMeaning one or more switch genders? Uhmm, no. But crossdressing can be fun to play with...lol.
CrossoversAre ok if done well, and if they involve characters I enjoy reading.
Group Slut FicsHa, nice title. But not really for me.
IncestNot my thing.
May/DecemberDon't have an opinion.
Het pairings in a slash ficNO! I'm not there to read that.
PlotThink of it as the pulse of the story. It stops, the fic dies.
PWPsI'm a big fan....
WIPsDon't read until they are done, for the most part. Unless I can't control myself, and have to take a peak.
LJ fics and communitiesAre just fine, but people - you need to have your fics archived too. Spread the love.
Mailing listsHave given me so much, pleasure and pain. But the good very much overrides the bad.
Big Name Fans???
Politics in a slash storyUhm, no opinion - just not my thing.
Religion in a slash storyNo what I'm there to read.
Wake up GayCome onnnn, be more imaginative than that. It's lazy.
And finally....
Your pet peeve:Crappy writing, readers who don't feedback, intentional bashing of a characters characterization.
Your advice to new slashers:Don't be afraid to try, get a beta, ask for advice, start small and build, don't be afraid to write sex - we all had to start somewhere.
Your slash wish list:More of the same - times ten.
The best slash archive:Not making a choice here - but since I'm an archivist there, the QAF Across The Pond Archive is a good choice.
The worst slash archive:No idea....

CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!





Was it good for you? lol....

hugs
