Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

Do you do that or do you wait till the fic is finished, just in case it ends horribly?

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

I always wait for a WIP to finish before reading it in the first place, so.

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

Can't kudos be given to individual chapters?

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[fingalsanteater]

No.

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

the fic can be kudoed only once, but comments can be left on as many individual chapters as you like.

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[fingalsanteater]

If I like what I've read so far, I give kudos.

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

No, I give kudos as soon as I like the fic and finish what's available now

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

I give kudos straight away if I like what's available, to encourage the writer.

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

It's not as though kudos are some kind of rare commodity that you only have so many of to give away.

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

No, but depending on how many people leave kudos after you, your name could be prominently attached to a fic for a while. Which sucks if the fic turns to shit and you left kudos beforehand.

Give

[solticisekf]

Sometimes I give kudos just because, even if I drop the fic

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

I won't even read WIPs anymore tbh. I've had too many I love get abandoned.

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

Vicious cycle, that. If there doesn't seem to be any interest in the fic the author can think it's not worth writing/posting the rest.

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

I like to encourage WiPs to get finished, so sometimes I wait until there seems to be a lull in updates (without warning or expanation) and leave a kudo then. If I'm really impressed, I leave a kudo right away (or whenever I get done with the latest chapter posted so far).

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[mimi-sardinia.livejournal.com]

Yes, I do, sometimes, if I like it enough, and think of it, but I do also like to wait until a fic is finished, just to make the kudos a reward, however small, for finishing.

Re: Giving kudos to WIPs

[fishnchips]

I usually give kudos to WIPs anonymously and only give logged-in kudos to finished stories that stayed great until the end (though there are exceptions).
Sometimes, when a WIP I liked a lot hasn't been updated for a while, I give anonymous kudos in the hope that the author might see it and remember continuing it - I think it's a better, less nagging way to do it than to write a comment that would only put pressure on the author.
