So...
Today I'm going to try againto write the next chapter for this story. Which I've done at least three times before.
The plus side is, at least I know what I want to happen.
The other side is...I keep deleting chapters that I don't think are good enough.
I opened a word doc though and set out a guideline of bullet points to follow for he bare bones of the chapter. Even if it has to be short, I will upload something on Wednesday.
A piece of advice when dealing with a more popular fic and the expectations you assume people will have about it: don't. Your fic becomes popular because people enjoy your writing and your style, not because they think you should do better. What people are looking for is more of you, not some ideal of you that you have for yourself. Just keep writing and let the chips fall where they may. The only thing you can really do to hurt yourself is to assume you're not good enough for the story that you yourself wrote. Don't stop writing it just because you're afraid it'll suck.
