I've finally decided to speak my mind. I'm sure some will agree and some wont. I've been reading stories on here for a while now and most of you have a great talent to write. But what seems to happen more often then not is you begin posting a story and then stop. A lot of times in the posts too, you'll even say I have more chapters written and ready to post, but am waiting for a certain time or more responses or whatever to post the next part. I guess my concern is just the fact that then the stories wind up never being read, especially if you already have a certain number of installments or the entire story written. Why not just post it all? Or upload it to some sort of file sharing site and leave the readers with a link to it. If you're worried about the whole copied and paste deal or whatever it is that would take care of it. Post a few sections as a preview more or less and then if the readers like it, they'll download the whole story in Word Format or whatever it may be. I don't think I'm alone here and I understand people have lives outside of the site. But I'd hope you'd understand too and stop the teasing and build up, we have enough of that on television. The process of reading the story itself should be the build up, not the waiting period between posts.
This isn't aimed at anyone specifically, just at anyone who's stopped posting a story they've already written or have more parts for, yet decide to post 1 at a time over weeks or even months. I understand that some of the authors might be writing new installments weekly or whatever, but often that's not the case. To the authors who have multiple chapters or a whole story, please whatever you have just post it at once not over weeks is all I'm saying.
In conclusion, I encourage you all to please keep writing and posting.
