I like this site because when I have that problem, I can leave one story for the other writers and focus on the next one.
Have a real banger of an idea for a story, but I don't want to post it because I'll lost interest and don't have time to write it.
You could try dropping it into the Story Ideas forum and hope someone picks it up eventually. Or do you want it done in a particular way you don't trust anyone else with?
I don't think anyone else would go for it, it's...too niche. Considering some of what I've written, that's saying something.
@raziel83 Been busy at work, not a lot of sleep, falling behind on DOOMED and really behind on Pipe-weed Dreams.
Have the terrible suspicion my story would be more popular if they kept sex slaves instead of freeing them.
Look sometimes I just have the urge to write a big-tittied orc fingering her girlfriend on the toilet until she pees. Don't judge me.
I'd rather have new regrets then the same old, same old. Though maybe that's just the gamer in me trying to 'complete the bestiary', if you know what I mean. Wonder if anyone's actually filled the thing...
Well, it depends on how old an 'old chapter' really is. Also take into account perspective; something written a year ago by someone who's been writing for a decade is not likely to be as drastically different as someone who only started a year ago. I feel like I've grown a lot in just the last few months alone. Plus, this site lets you put a new coat of paint on some old chapters, if you know what I mean.
Though, for any finished stories, I wouldn't touch anything, just in case you slip in a detail that conflicts with prior or future lore.
DOOMED is going okay, and even if it didn't get another like I'd have work to do on it well into next year.
That being said, been thinking about a game-mode story I've been putting off. Might try to balance the load in January.
Final total: 7,337 chapters on Lois Lanes Night Out. Thanks to everyone who contributed chapters and comments over the years!
I've hinted at this before, but I think it's an amazing achievement that you finished such a huge story. Most stories on CHYOA have no endings. A very small minority have one ending, [i]maybe[/i] two. But a [b]thousand[/b] endings? That's ridiculous. Insane. Unique. Unironically, I take my hat off to you. (What, no bbcode in profile posts??)
On the one hand, sad one story is ending. On the other hand, sort of stoked to get working on another story.
Part of it is that I've been writing endings for this story for over a year. There are over 7k chapters and about a thousand of them are endings.
