Things that make me go "Hmm..."

[wordinista]

I could very well send OGAM's chapter 54 off to my lovely crack team of beta-readers now.  I could.  I could possibly have it posted by the end of the week.

It's not done yet -- well, not as "done" as I'd like it, but it's at a resting point.  Unfortunately, the "resting point" is one hell-damn of a cliffhanger.  And I hate cliffhangers.  Hate reading them, so I don't write them.

Then again, I haven't updated this story since, what, November?

I'm inclined to hold off until I've written all that I planned to write, because I dislike cliffhangers.  Then again, I dislike not-updating, too.

Decisions, decisions. 

Any opinions?

Ooh cliffy. Whee...

As much as I say I dislike them, cliffhangers are what get me to read updates. There's the "OMFG what's gonna happen next?!?!" mentality that comes.

Possibly why when BtVS was still on I loved the end of season episodes, nearly all of them were cliffhangers leading into the next ep. I miss it X(

*mourns the passing of BtVS with you*

I suppose it makes sense that a cliffhanger would get people jazzed for a new chapter. But this thing's been dragging on for so frickin' long, it seems almost silly to DO a cliffhanger.

Really, I just want time to write the action bit without worrying about how many days/weeks/months since my last update. So I'll prob'ly post the cliff-chapter so I can start working on the action-chapter. Maybe I can even get it written in a reasonable amount of time! Wouldn't that be nice?

That and Angel: The Series. Loved both of them, even when the plot lines made me go "Eh, wtf?"

And if you think you're bad... I have fics with chapters partitally written sitting in my E drive, in the doc folder labled "Fan fics" that could very well be strung together and made into a chapter.

And I haven't done it. I think it's been 2ish years... maybe less... dunno.... real life sapped the life of my muses, and I think they're still on strike.

Off to find decent HP fics...... and contemplate plot bunnies.

*sigh* The series finale for AtS was a crime against humanity that made baby Jesus cry. I foamed and frothed for weeks afterward.

Never saw it... actually didn't watch most of season 5. And from what I hear I was better off.

Tragic.
