I've got a tumblr now at Inane-Rational.
How I Write
I now work to write the entirety of the story before posting anything. The story gets self-betaed and revised, then given to an actual beta, if one can be found. The story gets edited and revised again, if needed. Then the story will be posted on a weekly basis, if it is multi-chaptered.
But the works will be complete.
Why do I do this?
Firstly, so I'm not left with a frustratingly incomplete work. More so, it's frustrating for the readers, whose read the story and had never received a desired conclusion.
Secondly, it allows me to concentrate on the quality of the fictional work, rather than the rate of updates. As lovely and/or revealing as constructive reviews or praises are, it makes me want to put some odd time pressure on myself. And let's face it, it makes me feel bad. Guilts, not an emotion I need while writing.
Lastly, I feel my multi-chapter stories would be more of a cohesive whole. Being able to revise a story in it's completed form works better for the story, because it hasn't been distributed to the masses of the internet fandom. Details can be changed, and no one but the beta(s) and I would be the wiser.
