thanks! snapped it up 'cause I've been waiting for a "Ben TIFF '12" to replace my former "Ben TIFF '11" one (though - confession - liked his look better last year!)

I agree about all the great stories & updates, especially since the end of S3 (sob!):

Cythy's (as I act as her surrogate promoter) http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8378045/19/Heartbeats

Lazerwolf314's latest drabble: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8482249/7/Bindings

& Braelyn Rae's update to http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8494380/4/Stumbled (not exactly 'bedtime reading', but Andy's ingenuity will no doubt come through!)

LOL! I have actually been updating it in the first post of the "drabbles" thread but I was waiting until I completed all 4 in the "wait" series (Nick, Andy, Sam, and Gail) to post the links (I hope to have the next one up tomorrow night and the last one up at some point over the weekend)

I'll leave your drabbles alone until you've completed the series, Cythy! :p (even though there's a new one up! :devil: )

Meanwhile, new story from Lazerwolf314: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8523000/1/300-Seconds :D

seeing balladofbliss's update made my day! :spaz:

adding a rookieD "8 Days of Boo" one would complete my week!

Channelling @cabooklover & @angelflower28's 'twinsies', I see these two stories as "twinsies": similar scenarios, but coming from different POVs (Andy's vs Sam's) & equally great.

So, in my mind, they're 'twins': not identical ones, but I love them both equally! :wub:

I've read a few stories lately where the author has written that reviews make them write. Unfortunately I instituted a policy of not reading WIP fics because of abandoned stories in other fandoms. And I know I'm not alone in having a policy like this.

Abandoned stories are always frustrating but with a lot of authors on the RB board, you know that they will finish it based off of the fact that they have finished a bunch of other stories. I honestly did stop reading some authors because they have so many different stories and have not really completed any of them.

Also, the one thing that does put a smile on my face (and I know that there are a few members here who have done it - I used to but I've been busy - and a little lazy - lately) is when someone waits until I've finished to read the story but reviews multiple or all chapters as they go. Opening my inbox to find a bunch of unexpected emails alerting me to new reviews makes me happy.

Personally if I write a "chapter" story I actually pen the whole thing out from start to finish and then gradually post as I update. So technically it's completed, but I'm farming it out chapter by chapter.

That being said, I really make an effort to just write short stories that are 1 chapter in length. I have a hard time sustaining myself for much longer than that. lol

Yeah, if an author posts a story and notes that it is complete, then I'll read along. :D

I do exactly the same thing as you StarryDreamer, if I plan on writing a multi-chapter story, I write down everything that'll be in each of my chapter! So I really plan on finishing them! I think the reason why authors abandon stories is because they don't know what to write next, or because they're having writers block!

I recently started writing a multi-chapter fic, Just Give me a Chance, and I already know that it'll be 4 chapters long, and I have already written two of them, and the two others are all planned out!

I really hate when a story is left unfinished, but I'm unable to wait until a good story is finish to read it! So.... It's hard some times! xD :p

To be fair, there are a hundred reasons that could cause an author to abandon a story that have nothing to do with them not planning things out. And, even if you have everything planned out from beginning to end, things can still slow your progress. Personally, I post every chapter as I finish it, because the longer I hold on to it, the longer I mess with it, and the less I enjoy what I write.

Not to mention that a lot of people really DO enjoy reading WIP.

And yeah. Not gonna lie. There's an entire thread discussing how authors feel about reviews because they feel good. It might come off a little...odd...I suppose, to ask for reviews in exchange for faster updates, but maybe they're trying to change the fact that only about 5% of people who read actually review.

Gumball Machine Love update: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8311971/6/Gumball-Machine-Love



Also, in the conversation about WIP - I'm one of those authors who normally knows (or has written) my conclusion/epilogue but sometimes I change how I am going to get there. The one thing I love about this site is that any authors who are on here, I know that they have not disappeared off of the face of the earth (which is how I feel about some of the authors who have been MIA for a while)
