It seems many of us aren't native English speakers, but that isn't my case. But practice still plays a role in my writing: I don't want to lose my writing skills, and I hope to improve my vocabulary, grammar, and writing skills by writing.
Why do I write? A difficult question to answer, but I shall try. I write because I am inspired, but I do not wait for inspiration. I write because I enjoy it, but I do not write for enjoyment. I write because I have been encouraged, and I write because I have been supported. I do not write to be encouraged, or to gain support. I write for myself, but I do not write to find myself. I write because it is a passion, and I cannot deny my passions.
Why do I write lemons? I write lemons because I am terminally shy around girls, and this gives me an outlet for issues I have in getting into relationships. The closest I've come to the real thing is not worth mentioning. I write lemons for emotional outlet, and for hormonal outlet. For those who must know, my first few lemons were nothing BUT self-insertions -- they were literally me with girls from series I liked. And then I started writing fandom. Ever since starting to write in a real fandom, I've started shaping my skills, and refining them.
My first lemon was written in May of 2001, I still remember the experience of it (primarily because I wrote it at school, on a school computer, and kept a saved copy of it on he computer). I write to remember and commemorate that experience. And you know what? I don't care how twisted people think it is, I like it.
