Today's discussion topic: WIPs! The fanfic flamingo has something to say on the subject.



[Background — a six piece pie style colour split in three shades of pink. Foreground — the long neck and face of a pink flamingo.

Do you like to post your fics as WIPs or do you prefer to wait until you have completed the fic before you post it? Or do you ever only write one-shots?

I got about 800 words of fic done and finished the scene I was working on. Progress! :D I might actually stop for a while though and just print it all off for an edit. I haven't done that yet since I did a rewrite and it might help me work out if there are any gaping plot holes. I find it useful to do every now and then or you get stuck.

I used to post serial fics/WIPs chapter by chapter as I wrote them, but I can't say I ever finished any of them. So I'm trying to get my latest one finished before I start posting it, just for a change. I've actually done more one-shots lately, though I've got a growing collection of universes with separate but related fics that sort of form a coherent story. But it's more long fiction/short stories, one shots and novella-type things now.

800 words! Yay! Wish I could find it in myself to write that much. Alas, I've been procrastinating.
