WIP Challenge Check-in, Day 27 -- Monday

[linaewen]

Hello on Monday!  What kind of a writing day has it been today -- or yesterday, if today hasn't gotten going yet?

•     I thought about my fic once or twice
•     I wrote
•     I did some planning and/or research
•     I edited
•     I've sent my fic off to my beta
•     I posted today!
•     I'm taking a break
•     I did something else that I'll talk about in a comment

Discussion - Are any of your WIPs multi-chaptered fics?  At what point do you make a new chapter fic public?  Do you post chapters as you go, wait until you have a backlog of chapters written?  Or do you wait until it is complete before posting it?

I'm thinking about my writing, and hoping to do more than that, in spite of the week not looking hopeful! I have a deadline looming at the end of the week, and I want to leave June having written more than when the month started.

I have several mult-chaptered WIPs. A couple of them I held back from posting until I had a backlog of chapters, but I have since used up the chapters and now readers are forced to wait while I struggle to keep up with posting new chapters. Not a good situation! I have another on the back burner -- I'm tempted to wait until it is complete before posting anything, so that I can post on a regular basis. One of my goals is to get back into posting regularly on the stalled WIPs.

Yesterday I did some outlining and planning. I'm trying a new method so it's slow work, but it should make the actual writing of scenes easier.
