Ok, this comm is amazing, I only read fics recced here and this fandom is stunning in its' productivity.
However, I am getting totally annoyed when I end up wasting a whole damn evening reading 23 chapters of a story only to find out that it's not finished and hasn't been updated for four months. I seriously don't have the time for a 16 week 'cliffhanger' and doubt anyone has.
This is an open call to all writers, if it's not complete, don't start posting, please, for the love of Jensus, please!. I write too and completely understand the concept of writers' block, but at least put that on the end of your last chapter. I've been burnt three times in a row by this and will now only read completed fics.
It sucks for writers that do have a plan because if I see 1/?? or 16/?? or eek! 37/?? I won't be reading until I see 55/55, and then I'm there!
So, any completed long-assed Wincest or J2 fics please?
And mods, I appreciate my tone might not be welcome, and I'm honestly not being nasty, but three long, uncompleted stories + a heavy day job which needs a good deal of relaxation = 3 wasted evenings when I could have been reading something else that would have sent me to bed happy. And I doubt I'm so special that I'm the only who's found this happening to them.
