Oh Pfeifferpack - Haunt of the House - I'd almost forgotten that one and another is Brave New World by Kimberly Colbary and Chazzman both stories left in such cliffhangers.

their work that cannot be reproduced. It's not fair to a new author, either. Some fics will stay unfinished, and I mourn it, but as a reader, I respect it.

I have tons I wish would finish, and I'm always sad when an author appears to have abandoned a fic; however, I try to keep in mind that I don't know what caused it. RL, tragedy, illness, etc. Sure, I would like them to finish, and I have many author friends. They are unique and have subtleties in

Yes. I need to finish loading castaway. Also, thank you Niamh. Couldn't have said it any better. I still hope to continue mine.

Ita Queenfish...those are some of my "most wanted" stories too along with Haunt of the House by Jericho (tracy) and most of the stories by Helga Von Nutwimple. But, as you say the writers have the sole right to their babies. WIP's are still worth reading when well written like these.

I totally uphold writers rights over their stories, but I must confess to looking wistfully at some WIP's; Strawberry Fields by Ameeya, Castway by RipeWickedPlum, Cold Loving Las Vegas Style by BloodshedBaby, Buyer Beware by Just Sue and lots more and wishing they were finished.

And as soon as I buy a new computer, it'll be posted. That and the other two stories I have hanging around. But there are no promises when that'll happen.

I'm not speaking for anyone but myself, so if some other author wants to put their story up, that's on them. But you will never find one of mine up there. And if you do, it wasn't put there by me. And, in case anyone's wondering (or even cares anymore) GBoF is nearly finished.

playing god and dictating to them. . . if you do that, you generally don't get real character development and you can, and often times, do, end up with a mess. (And yes, I'm looking at the comics as well as some of the seasons. . . )

I don't use an outline. Frankly, any time I have used an outline has caused more of a problem . . . and I've only used it once. But another writer might find using an outline easier. Personally, I like the idea of the characters taking over and letting the story follow their dictates, rather than

It isn't up to the reader to decide what the author's situation or motivations are. To assume that a story is abandoned is. . . well, we all know what assume means.

Stress, ill health, RL issues are all reasons for writer's block. Bad reviews, people taking shots. . . all reasons for a writer having a bad run. But for a reader to assume that the author - any author - has abandoned a story because nothing's been posted in a while is wrong.

Writing, for any author, is a highly personal thing. Some of us can just sit down and have it all at our fingertips, without much plotting/planning or what have you. Some authors rely on outlines; that is their choice. Some do not; also their choice. Writer's block strikes for various reasons.

re: Abandoned Stories/Adopt-a-Fic and other sundries I haven't really posted about. I'm against the adopt-a-fic idea. And while I haven't been as active as I once was, I do not intend to completely abandon any of the stories I've started. They will be finished -- only a timetable of their own.

Glad to help, and save you from madness! It's actually the only OC story I've ever save to my hard disk. It's very good.

@ JewelsP Thank you, thank you, thank you, you've saved my sanity that IS the story I was looking for. I was starting to think I'd imagined it. Ah! the perils of growing older, losing your eyesight, your teeth and then your mind. Sorry everyone else it's not a Spuffy story though it is a good one

Darkprincess, you're not alone, TSR isn't working for me either. I get an "account suspended message as well. I wouldn't worry though, Pari's pretty damn quick when it comes to sorting things out.
