I relate to the part of resisting something! I've had to be careful in the past if I get to into a movie/book/tv show that isn't my main fandom/a fandom I write for, especially one set in a different time period/country because I don't want one of them sounding OOC (like when I was reading a lot of RDJ!Sherlock Holmes fic and trying to make sure Oliver Queen didn't suddenly sound like he belonged in Victorian England lol).
I probably get more influenced by other fanfic writers. It does make me nervous when I've read a ship a lot before I start writing it myself, since I don't want to copy them.
Writing is going a little slow but I'm working on it. I hope it's going well for you!
