I write quite a bit, but I'm afraid I'm not terribly good at it. I actually find the process of writing (i.e. real, substantive writing) quite laborious and very difficult. I would go so far as to say that I generally don't enjoy writing. However, I very much enjoy having written; I also enjoy the process of devising plots and characters. I've also dabbled in verse, most recently trying out the Old English alliterative form that Tolkien was so fond of.
I generally don't have the same urge to write non-fiction; I suppose this is because the main purpose of non-fiction is to convey information and I don't seem to have much information in need of conveyance. I have, however, done some outlining for projected books on two somewhat esoteric topics - one on role-playing (D&D etc.) as an art form and one on a solipsistic approach to logical positivism.
Sorry to add another 'I write but I have nothing worth sharing' post to thread.
