Hello!
I approach writing as a science and musical art.
My plots seem to all end up in the same sub-genre of fantasy, so I'm working on diversifying a bit by building different styles.
I think an immersive atmosphere is mandatory to make an interesting read. However, since my primary language is French, I've got a long way to go before I've built a decent style in English yet.
I am fond of Bot Fiction, Space Opera Parodies, Dramatic Farytales, Xenofiction, and Romantic Fantasy. I can't tire of story featuring Cultural exchanges, a sound logic all along a story-line, the call of adventure, a sense of freedom and hope; societies with defined rules, and fictitious language.
Basically, Noblebright fantasy (http://www.noblebright.org/can-tragedy-noblebright and http://simmeringmind.com/geeking-out-over-noblebright-2 )
There are also elements I avoid : pain/blood play, Grimdark universes, anything featuring a male hero build like a cupboard, Werewolves, Vampires, Zombies, BL, yaoi... Which disqualifies 90% of the Romance genre for het women. Which, is sadly why bit-lit and most of chick-lit isn't my cup of tea. With exceptions. Wonderful, wonderful exceptions~
I'm currently working on three books. The Romantic Fantasy / Xenofiction kind of book, with queer relationships, telepathy, politics, betrayals, etc.
...Budled with waifish magical dryads (think high elves), and men and not quite amazons, al this little world bound by an intricate hierarchy of oath of service.
(I'll blame Laura Lond, Tolkien and Terry Prattchett mostly.)
