Testing.

1. 2. 3. Set this up mostly just so I could friend a lot of people in order to read their fic. Is that usurious of me? Ah, well. I'll put up some fic here, too. Fair trade, and all that.

Not sure how good it is, my first and hopefully not only work.

I hope it's not only, too!


I just wanted to know if you update regularly..because WIP's are like a curse upon my soul :P

I know what you mean. I can't say how regularly I update, because 1. some of it depends on my beta and whenever she finds the time to go over the chapters, and 2. I'm stuck on a plot point about ten chapters from now, and am not sure when I'll be breaking through the block. It might cause a blip in updates, might not.

Short answer, I guess: read at your own risk ;o)

LOL I guess all fic are. But sometimes, you just gotta make those sacrifices *g*.

I laugh in the face of danger...then I hide until it goes away...

And well I was just wondering ball park time. Meaning I've been caught reading a WIP which has and most probably never be finished, it's been years.

That's pretty much what i'm worried about.

lol. You've really been burned on WIPs, haven't you? Me too, though I must confess: I've left a fic or two unfinished. Okay, and maybe more than two.

I'm hoping to update this fic once every few days, and, at the very longest interval, every week or so. But I can't hold my lovely beta or my stinky muse to that, so if you're really worried, don't read it. I won't be hurt, and I'll let you know when it is finished (because I do plan on finishing it). In the meantime I'll be enjoying that hot avatar of yours and going to see the rest of them ;o)

LOL. Fic is your art. Icons are mine *g*


Yes, I try not to read too many WIP's unless I know it will eventually be finished.

Icons are mine

Definitely. And I hate that one you just used, because I tell him "yes please" and there is no response. *sobs*

oh, and if this is a better answer to your question: this looks to be a long fic for me. Right now it looks upwards of 35 chapters--so even if I do post every couple days, it won't be done for months. However, like I said, I'm not planning on abandoning it.

[identity profile] ba4ever.livejournal.com 2005-07-10 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh goody, been searching for a looong fic. I'm a sucker for those.

Oh and of course I wouldn't expect updates every day or even every week. I'm talking years. LOL.

No, definitely won't be years. I don't have an attention span that long! And I, too, am a sucker for long fics. I really respect and admire a lot of one-shots, but after most of them I'm left wanting more. Which is why, of course, I write fanfic in the first place.

[identity profile] ba4ever.livejournal.com 2005-07-10 03:13 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, well then you're my new best friend lol.

I'm like that took, some people just plug out fic after fic..but sometimes you just want somethng just long and plotty that will take you days to read.
