Besides the Harry Potter fandom -- do you write for any other fandoms currently?

I wouldn't say so much 'write' as I am currently up to my ears in presentations and papers for my college classes, but I do surf around in plenty of fandoms. My BIG ONE is Harry Potter, although I started in Animorphs, went to writing RPF (N'Sync ::blush::), Newsies, and then to HP. I still read/write the last one, not so much the middle, and none of the first. Which kind of makes me sad because I loved those books. But my other fandoms that I'm not really active in but like anyway are LotR, The West Wing, Good Omens, PotC, General Hospital and I'll write/read for pretty much any book, TV series, or movie that I've ever read/watched and liked.

What ships do you like in other fanverses?
I'll read pretty much anything so long as it's well written but my favorites are:
LotR: Faramir/Eowyn, and Legolas/Eowyn -- a fandom ship to boot, I know, but it's been done! And it's been done decently! (At least, I liked it.) I just like reading about Eowyn.
The West Wing -- Josh/Donna (::points to icon::), Josh/Sam, Sam/Ainsley (although I've yet to see a fic that I loved the characterization in for this pairing).
PotC -- Will/Elizabeth, but I'll never say no to some decent Will/Jack.
GH -- Journey (Jason/Courtney). I will not budge on this one. I used to like Carson (Sonny/Carly) but I'm liking Starly (Steve/Carly) more and more. And GQ (Dillon/Georgie) is great. I loved Slye (Luke/Skye, although my Luke/Laura mother beat me over the head with a notebook, quite literally).

Have you considered trying your hand at writing for another fandom?
I write a lot... I just go where my imagination leads me. I've written lots of fanfiction in my day, not all of it good and certainly not all of it posted on the web.

Or perhaps you left another fandom to come to Harry Potter?
Er. I wouldn't say so much "left" as "lessened my presence in".

Do you consider some of the fandoms to be flash in the pans?
When I first read a book or see a movie/TV show, I'll be really excited about it, and then my interest will die a little.

And lastly, how long do you foresee the Harry Potter fandom lasting?
I want Heidi to thwap my kids on FAP for being brats. :D
