I have lots of interest in Fantasy genres. In my opinion, they're the greatest things to write, because you can create weird concepts, completely new planets and rewrite the laws of physics. Because of the ability to change reality when you write fantasy, people will not judge you for it, and you can become the creator, or God if you will, of a world not so well known, or you can even re-model Earth. The possibilities are limitless, which I find can be like art. In art, you can paint whatever you want as an expression of yourself, but some genres are limited, and fantasy is not.

It basically was a story where a person met the perfect partner, and that the main character's definition of perfect had nothing to do with sex, and though people tended not to understand it, what he desired became a truth when he met the perfect partner that loved him for who he was, and they both preferred it the way it was. Though a bit more complex than that, I might end up posting it on here one day. It was a short story of about 4 and a half pages worth.
I usually start writing on a whim, because I had a small idea, usually from a dream, that i'd like to dwell on or expand. The more I think about the scenario of that dream or idea, the more plot holes get ironed out and the nicer it seems.
