Thing is, what "appeals" to a writer can fall into a pretty broad category by the virtue of the fact that people who like to write are usually imaginative types who get carried away by cool ideas. There's a world of difference between something a writer wants to explore in fiction just to see where that concept might take them, and how that person might want to live their life.

THIS

A small portion of what I write is kind of vaguely related to wish fulfillment. A far bigger portion is "this is something really cool and fascinating to imagine, it could never happen in real life or shouldn't but let's follow the path and see how it plays out in the story."

My shipping fic never has anything to do with who I would want to date in real life. It's all about how these specific characters, neither of whom are me, relate to each other. I personally would not want to be in a relationship with any of my favorite characters because they're all trainwrecks in different fascinating ways, and besides, the person I pair them with is always much better suited to them because I'm the writer and I say so.

Exactly. I love writing cute domestic fic with my favorite ships settling down together and raising a family because I enjoy seeing them get a happy ending after all of the crazy stuff they've gone through in their canons, but I have absolutely zero desire to ever have any children of my own. That's a scenario I like for my favorite characters, not for me.
