writing WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

anyone who's done it, about how often do you update? Cause my last chapter reviews were all "update soon!" "looking forward to update!" "I hate waiting for updates..." and I'm like, bitch, I wrote 3 chapters in a week. Hold your damn horses.

I've never written one, but most I see that are updated regularly are updated once a week to once a month.

That's just their way of saying "I love this and I can't wait for more because it's so awesome!" I think most people aren't really expecting you to churn it out asap.

What if you notated on the next chapter that you plan to update weekly or whatever, and then if you post more it'll be like extra?

If I had the next chapter 60% done, it would be weekly. Otherwise it was more like bimonthly because I am slow as hell.
I absolutely love people that post more than 1 awesome chapter a week, I get so addicted to their fic.

On a related note, has anyone else seen that author that has some multi-chapter fic or collection of one shots that churns out a new piece 4k+ literally everyday? I remember a person like that in the Bleach fandom and their work was awful but I was amazed how much they posted every single day.

From what I'm used to as a reader, bimonthly is fast. Very. The only WIP I'm reading at the moment updates about every 6 months.

I've done it. Mostly, i ignore the 'update soon!' stuff. By this, i mean, if i get a comment that says 'yay, loved this chapter! when will there be more?!!!!' I just say 'thank you, so glad you enjoyed!' and utterly ignore the update part.

Then if i post again before i have more of the story, i say something like 'chapter next up in a few days!' or whatever. I like to have my stuff out in a timely fashion, and haven't done a *lot* of WIP with big gaps or anything, but i don't have massive guilt or anything, either.

I'm unpredictable I feel bad for this but I dunno I write what I feel like writing or feel something for at the moment.

I always worry that ever since I canceled a story I lost muse for that people are all like "oh she won't finish it she'll just cancel it again" especially about these two crossovers that I had that got a lot of reviews and someone who sent an angry PM demanding if I was going to update it or not when I was in a really stressful situation ( a job AND college). Since then I just...I dunno I don't have the inspiration for the story and everything I write looks so shitty.

Though on one of my other stories I'm doing well, if a bit slow lately.

Re: writing WIPs

[(Anonymous)]

I've written six or seven WIPs, and I always, always regret posting them in chunks, because two thirds of the comments will be "update soon" and "moar please!" Sometimes I just wanted to hear specific feedback on that chapter, and boohoo, it didn't happen. I don't really write WIPs anymore.

I generally posted once a week when I had the entire thing written, or once every couple weeks when I was in the process of writing it. My chapters were usually 3000+ words, so a couple weeks gave me enough time to write them and get them beta'd.

Re: writing WIPs

[pantswarrior]

I update when I have more to update with. Depending on the story, that's historically been anywhere from every day to every few months.

Some fandoms are really impatient, so I don't post WIPs there. Old fandoms, though, where people have been looking for new material for years anyway? I don't feel like making them wait until I'm all the way done. And kink memes seem to like even small updates as long as they're regular.
