I’m attempting to polish up the end of the current arc of my longfic. I like having a buffer for my weekly upload schedule! There are two more chapters to write and then I’m on to planning the next arc.
The other thing I’m doing is preparing for my other fandom’s rarepair week. I have decided to use all three of the daily prompts as three separate stories–trying for 21 mini fics instead of 7 in total. I’ve written four of them and started another two. They are due by the beginning of September, so I can’t slack off!
There are chapters which are necessary and make sense when you read an entire story, but when readers are getting one chapter at a time they just don’t get it. Hopefully your readers get that and are sticking around!
Folks will take what they want from a story. Readers will often return for the parts they love. For some, it will be for the whole story, for others it may be more selective. Still, you’ve created content that people are genuinely enjoying engaging with even if not every chapter is for everyone.
Thanks both 😊
