What genre I write is mostly defined by the characters, I think. Oh, I agree with this. There are some characters that definitely lend themselves to certain genres, and to read anything else would make them seem OOC. Not to say that there can't be some great Bruce Wayne fluff out there - I just think it would be terribly difficult to do well, and it might not attract an audience.
I have a number of ideas which could be considered crack, but I really can't write anything other than seriously, regardless of the plot- which, unless I'm confused on the terminology, means I can't write crack. I guess if you took those cracky ideas and wrote about them seriously, it could turn out to be parody or satire, or just a really ironic story. I'm not sure.
I must have hit the beta jackpot, because mine have always been willing and able to provide concrit and encouragement. But then I don't think I've ever gotten concrit via review, unless it was a minor spelling/grammar nitpick or an HTML issue.
