I refuse to read fics like that. Usually the author has no end in mind, so they just desert the fic and you're left wondering what the fuck happened.

Yeah. The best is when one author has multiple stories like that, all at the same time, in the same fandom, posted to the same community. "I know people are waiting on part 37 of 'Never Say Goodbye' but I just couldn't stop thinking about this plot bunny!!! So here's the first part of my newest fic, no title yet but comment if you like it and maybe I'll post more!"

THAT WAS A COMPLETELY FABRICATED EXAMPLE BUT TRY TO TELL ME IT DOESN'T READ LIKE I COPIED IT FROM SOMETHING.

rrrrrr

I hate when they do ch 21/?? cause thenit's like 'DAMMIT I don't have time to read 900 chapters and I'm getting impatient for the ending!'. SO irritating.

So did you quit Bath and Body or did you just add on LUSH? Either way, that's awesome. I can't walk by that store without inhaling deeply cause it always smells so refreshing. Take a photo of your hair! I wanna see this blueness :) Also, I find it amusing that you were putting off bedtime due to wet nails and tea necessity as those are two of the most oft used reasons I have for putting off sleep. I don't know why I always paint my nails at like 3 in the morning while tired but I do. Inevitably I go to bed while they are still somewhat tacky and wake up with a mess. I know. I'm a genius.

I miss you too! And I'm sorry this got hella long. :/ Sorry haha

The ending may never come! With stories that long, odds are the author will lose interest before the damn thing even gets finished anyway. totally not worth it. ...also I don't think I've ever seen one that's well written. (Not to say that no unfinished fics can be good, just probably not the ones that have a billion chapters with no end in sight.)

Lush offered me a job so I accepted, I'd work both if I could but Lush considers it a conflict of interest. I am excited :D there's some pictures on Facebook but just two so far. I'll try to get more tomorrow or something.

My nails mostly came out good! I usually do the same thing D: but this time I tried to do it right. there's some little bubbles but no shmutzing. yaaay

I miss you too! I don't mind long comments. clearly. :D <3

Exactly! And there's nothing worse than not knowing what happens at the end. Although I have read one that was good. I don't think it ever ended but while it was happening it was good. It was a Supernatural fandom fic. Jensen and Jared of course. Yumm.

They offered you a job? How?! Just like, you were walking on by and they said, hey wanna work here?

Yay good nails! Little bubbles are totally acceptable but smudged garbage is not. I fail apparently lol

Ok good. Cause I almost felt bad haha
