I have been toying with starting my first ever Doctor Who fan-fic (I've written for other sci-fi fandoms before). I was wondering, since so many great writers post to this community, what episodes/books have really inspired you to write a 10/Martha story?

I really can't believe I forgot it. In fact, it's going to have to go right to the top of my rewatch pile.

Oh, OK, and the scene in the machine, which did in fact directly inspire me to write fic.
Books-wise, I love Last Dodo, but I'm generally a sucker for Jac Rayner's first person narratives (Earthworld and her Benny books are also favourites). Revenge of the Judoon isn't terribly shippy, but I do love its Martha-smitten guest star, Captain Carruthers. I just started Pirate Loop, today, as it happens; enjoying it so far.

Teehee and me (well that scene combined with a comment from parrotfish set me off !)
TLE hasn't inspired me to write quite so many fics as the other episodes I mentioned, but I do love its vibe !

And the hug at the end after Martha has saved the day: perfection. There needed to be more of those hugs in S3 IMO.

I was wondering which book is the most shippiest - The Last Dodo or Pirate Loop. I am just about to finish Wooden Heart (not very shippy) and I want another book!!

The Pirate Loop without a doubt...
