regarding the deleted comment - I don't think ALL german fics are bad. there are in fact a couple of german authors and fanfic writers who are really fucking great and I wouldn't want to read those stories in english. but on animexx are like... 40 fics. and they all suck, because they're mostly written from 13 year olds with no experience and too much freetime musing about gay sex.
but as you said - in english there's way more to chose from. and I also prefer writing my stuff in german, because it's easier and faster for me. also I have a certain style in german, which is hardly transferable to english, because that'd result in a grammar mess, lol but I translate my fics anyway and get myself good betas, because I'd like to improve my english ^^
