historical or contemporary?

In fiction writing, there are contemporary and historical story lines. Generally, the research required for contemporaries is much more easily attained, and most daily life stuff doesn't have to be researched at all because we are living it. Not so for a historical.

I have five WIPs. (works in progress) One is a medieval. Two are Victorians. One is a time travel that takes place both in this time and in Victorian times, and one is a contemporary. The truth is that I really WANT to write the contemporary because it sees like it would be easier and I wouldn't have people pointing out historical mistakes (because there will always be someone more versed in a certain historical period than I.) But I keep running into a wall that tries to turn me towards the others because my VOICE really is stronger in historical stories. If you've ever read an author that starts out in historicals and you love the way they write them, then, after they have a name, they write a contemporary (probably because their publisher told them to), you might know what I mean. The way they tell a story just "feels" better either in historical fiction or contemporary fiction. Think of a children's book author writing a romance, for instance. So I have faced the fact that historical fiction is what I like to read and therefore I will be more interested in writing a historical book, even if I don't really enjoy research since I'm so impatient, and I have finally settled on one of my WIPs.
