    I've never actually written about it, but I know I'd be terrible at pregnancy/children/anything to do with the character having babies.

    It's why none of my characters seem to get pregnant. :XD

    Sex scenes :shifty,
    Not actual sex scenes in general, just the entire writing process of it gets to me. I find myself torn between what words are appropriate and which words aren't, how long it should go on for, what attitude should be present during it. The actual result, if decent enough for me, I don't hate at all, it's just getting through the writing part that bothers me.

    I hate writing endings and beginnings. I have the biggest problem thinking of them, making them sound okay... I just struggle.

    I hate writing the middle.
    I always seem to know how I want it to start and how I want it to end, but no idea what will happen in between XD

    I hate writing the beginning of a story. I always have the hardest time writing out the first few chapters of a story. After I get those done, I'm perfectly fine with the rest of the story. The beginnings always seem to get me.

    Same with me...I need to plan everything out otherwise I just lose interest and find it all very difficult to update at all.

    I hate writing anything that I don't have experience in... so stuff like weddings and death. But being an author I want to develop my writing so there's no harm in trying it. I don't think either of the times I tried it came out very well, but at least I had a go and can now say I don't like writing it...

    I don't like to write waiting scenes, you know, where the character is waiting. And I'm not usually very comfortable writing crying scenes.

    Description. I'm more of a dialogue type of person.
    Sex. I just. I can't pull that off.
    Endings.

    Love or hate.
    I don’t hate to write it but it’s so black and white and I have
    nothing of importance to contribute on the matter.

    What I do hate to write is fairy-tale romance.
    I absolutely hate the ‘ol “princess gets saved by prince”
    and all the happy ever after nonsense. Because I find it
    so absolutely ridiculous.

    Also I don’t like to describe characters; so I never do.
    Not even when I write original fiction.
    Sometimes I stick something in there but
    only to paint a vague general picture.
    And most of the time I find appearance
    to be too irrelevant to even mention. x]

    I don’t like writing dialogue either.
    Even if I might be good at it I don’t like
    it because it’s so difficult to make it seem
    authentic and not stupid and lame and
    script-like. x]

    Same. Plus, I can never find a decent way to fit description of a character into the story so I don't tend to.
    I just make the narrator casually mention their hair colour or having inherited something from a parent.

    Sad Same. It's just... hard. I don't know, unless I know exactly what I want and how to go about it, it's just not gonna go out right.

    Like, a million other people, I've attempted sex scenes, but never got it quite right. I always seem to make it sound awkward. So I find it easier to just hint at it, rather than go into it.

    I don't like writing fights and arguments. I just think they sound awful when I write them, like really stupid arguments and pathetic fights.

    Female characters. :shock:

    Weird, I know, considering I am of the female gender, but I can't write girls to save my life. They all seem either boring, annoying, or just plain bitchy. I've also been told I was a gay guy born in a chick's body. :file:
