dear my friends,

a question. Which do you prefer, a short update--something around a thousand words or so--or a longer one, say more than two thousand? Does it depend on the subject matter? Just wondering. I noticed lately that my updates are getting longer and longer.
Me, I like a nice long update.

This icon is still, in my opinion, the best Clex short story ever. *G*

Yeah, long or short is fine with me. Frequent is better than not, I think.

The icon is genius! lol. I grin every time I see it. As far as updates, I'm always just happy to get something new. lol. I think it depends on the story, too. If something is being written in a big, epic, emotionally upheaving kind of way, longer updates are nice. But, then again, shorter updates can be really great, too, and they can be wonderful for building anticipation. I don't know. *shrugs and hides in corner* lol. I'm just excited to get new stuff to read.

I haven't read/written/been fannish in ages, but you asked, so...

I prefer medium to longer updates, but if one is going to post a short update, something significant/plot and/or character development should have occurred in the update. YMMV, of course.

I just like updates, heh. I don't like artificially short ones, though - gimmie a *little* story.

I'll take what I can get, darling. I'm certainly not one to point any fingers about updates. *pokes at own languishing WIPs*

your icon - totally is the best Clex short story ever. *g*

Also, long updates are good, but sometimes it's hard to read them when I'm way behind and trying to catch up on the flist.

Dear, as long as we learn something new, I'd settle for a sentence or two.

I was gonna comment, but got distracted by your icon. ;) So.... what was the question again?

....

....

Oh, yeah.... updates...

I'm not picky. Any update is better than none. :)

So length wise I'm not that picky but long and in depth does it for me all the time. Huh that sounds porny oh well....
