30 Days of Fandom, catch-up, Days 4-6

Here's the full 30 days, for those who want to play along.

( Day 4: Do you have a 'muse' character, that speaks to you more than others, or that tries to push their way in, even when the fic isn't about them? Who are they, and why did that character became your muse? )

( Day 5: If you have ever had a character try to push their way into a fic, whether your 'muse' or not, what did you do about it? )

( Day 6: When you write, do you prefer writing male or female characters? )
