I totally see this. I've the cake with poison (i.e. Emma/Jane femmeslash with zombies) which I've never been able to really write beyond a couple of chapters (for mostly other reasons having to do with benign a crap plotter of adventure stories) and the internalized homophobia trips me up, too (see my only attempt in the Persuasion slash story, with which I'm not entirely happy, and the new ending of NEG, which is still more manageable for Reasons). And Emma and Jane would be waaaay easier than Mary -- I think almost any character would be easier than Mary. I still want to see you try more, though. That story is awesome.
