What do you usually read on FFN? I usually go for Angst/Romance/Tragedy, Lot's of drama, but the way most of them are written show si much emotion that you, as a reader, will feel the emotions felt by the character...

I like Hurt/Comfort/Romance combination ::giggles suddenly:: And the Angst genre is always a BIIIIG fav...comedy if it's a writer who has proven to have a good sense of humour.

Usually I read Romance/Comedy/Drama. Occasionally I read angst, but usually it makes me feel bad (because there really are some great writers out there!)

It depends on what show I'm reading for. But, I usually like angst and hurt/comfort and friendship fics. I rarely read comedy, because most of the comedy doesn't appear to be well written. If I really like a couple, I might search for romance fics about the pair, but I'm picky as to what kind I'll read.

I like mystery/romance/and drama/science fiction/fantasy. I do not like angst (unless Mr. Raines or Mr. Lyle on the Pretender are having a bad day.) unless the characters are teenagers, because that is what they are going through. I am an incurable romantic and I like when so and so gets together with so and so, after a long struggle, of course. But I do not want to think the ending is hopeless. I also go for the continuing after the series plot and I do not like when the obviously good characters have everything their way and who you hope would get together, the good girl's father is not that horrible villain, etc.

hello :) i've been a reader on FFN for 7 years now and i mostly read anime and tv show fanfics. my choice of genre is angst and drama ^_^ i think i like to read the angst fics mainly because it makes me feel as if i'm not the only one suffering and there are more unlucky people out there than me. depending on the story my choice varies too. if i read supernatiral fanfics, for example, i usually look for hurt/comfort or family genres. there are tons of great fanfics in FFN and some are even novel length, spanning 300,000+ words! it is usually a great respite in my usually mundane days...
