bitter musing

Dear Diary,

Why can't folks wait until they finish WIPs before they cut loose a fandom they fall out of love with? *SIIIIIIIIGH*

broken-hearted,
Roxy.

Oh, Roxy.

But would fic that's not written with love be worth reading?

*hangs head* I'm guilty of this. I'm sorry. :(

I'd almost prefer that writers don't post their WIPs until they've finished them (By finished I mean written, though not necessary edited. I just want to know that all the content is there). That way, should they chose not to finish, I won't have been sucked in and left wanting more. What can I say? I'm selfish, too.

*hugs Roxy tight*

That's why I'm very picky about who I read WIPs by any more.

Permanently unfinished WIPs make me very sad, that's why I work so hard (one exception which I promise to return to) to finish mine.

That said, lately I've been devouring McShep and have ordered SGA DVDs from Netflix. I really don't see myself writing them anytime soon, though because although I like reading about them, it's only certain dynamics between them I enjoy and I don't think I could write it.

So I read them and keep writing CLex. :-D

It made me so sad when my favourite SV author (I won't say who it was lol) seemed to keep on starting new stories all of the time, without finishing anything.

At least her stories written during seasons 1 and 2 of SV seemed to generally be complete, but after that it was a just a case of starting new fics all the time. It's hard when they end on cliffhangers that just kill you :/

I did that once. *hangs head in terrible, terrible shame*

In my own defence, it was almost like I was doing people a favor, it was that bad.

good thing, i dont mind, that some wips will never be finished, or i had to shun and defriend at least half of my flist :D
i will just simply continue the story in my mind as i see fit *g*
