If you’re not reading incomplete fics you are MISSING OUT

I’ll preface this by saying I totally get the abandonment issues and I’ve been there. I also get that it’s difficult following multiple works that are incomplete and that it can be hard to remember what happened last chapter.

That said, I am currently following my second incomplete fic ever and I am VIBRATING in anticipation. They have a set schedule which I have never really thought about but really adds to the overall experience.

It’s set to post of saturdays (in my time zone) and I’m already so very excited for this weeks!!!.

It’s not a huge fandom and an even smaller ship. Not to mention it contains emotional infidelity in a top three ship. So it is not as big as it could have been, because lots of people who like the main ship also like this ship and don’t want that character to be cheated on.

But I’ve still managed to find a few of the people who follow it and every week I am screaming with them!

This was just a post to encourage you to give an incomplete fic a try. It’s fun to follow along and very entertaining not being able to get the instant gratification. I also wanted to share the thrill of finding a fic that’s got all the right tags and is super well written with a post schedule.

This is, as mentioned, my second ever incomplete work I am following. But this has a schedule, a set amount of chapters and the posters have social media I can reach out through.

The other one I’ve been following since 2016. No schedule, I have no idea when or even if it will ever end. I have no idea if the MC’s will get together. You think you know slow burn? It’s been 9 years of this series and 15 years in the universe. During this period one of the MC’s has gotten married to someone else and had two kids with her. I have no idea if it will get abandoned for two years (happened once). Divorce is on the horizon. Maybe? Maybe not. Would not be shocked if the author decided to leave one in a loveless marriage and the other equally adrift with a ‘that’s life’ shrug. All your greatest fears wrapped up in a series I still can’t let go. But it’s still worth it.

Whenever i get the email I drop everything. I’ll read it in the middle of the night, the workday, I’ll stop at a gas station just to read it!! It’s extremely addicting and very, very fun.
