That pic is making me drool, though.

Same for the most part. There are a few authors that I trust enough to read their WIP, but other than that, nope, I'm waiting until it's done. Been burned way too many times.

Same. I feel like I have the worst luck too. I have multiple fics that are 150k+ and updated on a steady basis for multiple years that just stopped shortly after I started reading them. I feel like I am a WIP killer and so I stopped reading them for the good of all fandom-kind.

1. Awesome picture, I'm hungry now
2. Saaaaame. I browse WIPs & save them to my "Mark For Later" section & check them periodically.

I've never done this, but I like the idea.

I never used to read WIPs, but then I got into a smaller fandom where I burned through all the completely fics for my ship in a couple of months, and all that was left for me to read was WIPs. Also, like four of the best-written fics in the fandom are abandoned WIPs. *cries*

This is me. I'll bookmark a WIP but I won't read it until/unless it gets finished. And if it goes a long time without an update, I let it go into the ether.

Otherwise, finished only, thanks

Yep, I'll bookmark ones that look interesting but won't start them until they're finished. Which is totally hypocritical of me because I definitely want people to read my WIPs. The rare exceptions are for fandom friends who, like me, have proven track records of updating regularly and actually finishing in a timely manner.

i learned my lesson when i was reading a WIP that, after the penultimate chapter, and right after dropping a HUGE cliffhanger, the fic was never updated again. every so often, i go in and check and it still hurts to see "Chapters: 5/6"

I read and enjoy WIPs, even ones that have been discontinued. Just fodder for me to daydream the endings, really, but I do understand why some people might not enjoy them.

I'll subscribe to WIPs so I can keep track of how close they are to being finished. As soon as I get the email that the last chapter is posted, I'm on it!
