Ah... I know quite a bit of Japanese, so, by the time I developed an interest in various Chinese languages, I already had quite a few characters down. And, more importantly, I think, my mind was somehow "trained" to learn, retain and produce characters (because I think it definitely gets easier the more you learn). So, I'm sure I'm in the minority, but I find the pronunciation harder than the writing. :)
