I find myself in something of a quandry. Part 3 of the Magic Inc. story arc has ballooned to 8000 words, and I don't believe I can get it boxed off in less than another 2000. I would normally therefore split the chapter in two, and publish both together to clear the decks for Apollo 13. It's mostly Nixon, even in my head he keeps on asking questions and doing things that add to my word count.
However, complicating things is the fact that on Thursday I'm going on a camping holiday with my family, during which I will be incommunicado, or at least, not able to continue working on the next chapter. I will not be back until the following Sunday. I might be able to rush things, but even if I complete it, the last part will be lower quality, as i won't have time to review it.
The question is, do I wait until after the holiday to complete things and post everything then, or do I post the first half now and leave people hanging on the other part?
Wait. Don't sacrifice quality for the convenience of time. We're patient, we can wait. Go have fun with your family, and when you're back you can finish it. Sometimes the story writes itself, and it's best not to get in its way when that happens.
If need more time take it even if you are going to need to delay it due to a vacation. Quality writing takes time and should never be rushed. If you really want to or need to you could also just break the chapter into two parts.
In any case love the story and hope to read more when you finish chapters.
"You CAN'T rush art." 😎 Save it.
Wait on it until after you get back. And on that note, enjoy your camping trip.
Go and enjoy your camping trip, we can wait.
Don't worry about it. We can wait a bit longer.

I'm with Leadless on this one.
Clearly the sane thing to do is to cancel the trip and hide yourself away in your room like a hermit, slaving away on a keyboard. Having a life is just holding you back, man.
Post the first half now and take your time with the second.

I agree with this course of action.
family is more important than fanfics.
