A lot of accidental happenings led me to fandom. I accidentally clicked onto Mugglenet's fan fiction page whilst searching for updates on the new HP movie (which, if I remember correctly, was POA, and I was trying to figure out who was playing Remus and Sirius). I read a couple of gen fics then somehow - don't ask me how... unconscious desire, perhaps - managed to click on a slash fic.
I didn't realise what I'd done and was a little bit surprised when Sirius and Remus started making out on the stairs of Grimmauld Place(and I can't remember the fic, unfortunately). I did, however, quite like the idea (thank god it was a well written fic) and went in search of more fic. The more I read, the more this pairing made sense, and I fell in love with Sirius (I had already given my heart to Remus).
A friend - misundersnape - started writing a Snape/OC fic and that, plus the horror that was DH, inspired me to write an alternative version of the story with Remus and an OFC. A few Remus/OC fics later and I decided to try my hand at slash, since that was pretty much all I read despite writing het sex. I loved writing it, my first fic - which is HIDEOUS - got a really positive response, and I've been writing slash ever since. I don't think I'll ever feel as connected to another pairing as I do to these pups.
