I'm definitely a rarepairs writer by preference. I like exploring the little nooks and crannies of canon. I don't have an OTP, so I'll write whatever strikes me as an interesting idea or character interaction. The most popular pairing I've written is probably Ron/Draco (at least it generated more feedback, so I'm guessing it's more popular than Severus/Charlie and Severus/Regular or Marietta/Pansy).
I like the feedback, but for two reasons. First, I want to know that what I'm writing is good and (hopefully) improving. So I'd hate to think that what I think is good is woefully lacking by general standards. That leads to the second reason I like feedback: I'd like my writing to improve over time, and though I think I'm quite good at critiqueing my own stuff, in the end, it helps to get an external view.
Having said all that, I just wrote an H/D (for a birthday request) and it didn't hurt too much ;-)
