Do Stories Have An Expiration Date?

My story, "Danger Close", was originally started in the middle of 2019, right in the middle of the last season of MLP:FIM. I admit that it's been a long haul trying to figure out just how I wanted to structure it, and exactly how the story should develop. I'm not much of a writer, and even as a reader I tend to stick a little too much to history as opposed to fiction, which can limit one's imagination somewhat. But in the last several months I've gotten more momentum worked up and have gotten two additional chapters out, with a decent start on a third. But, I've noticed that way too many of the views that I've gotten for these chapters are my own, racked up during the construction process. I guess I just have to wonder just who is reading this story? I still very much want to finish all my stories. I can't help but notice that an awful lot of the multiple thousands of stories here are incomplete, and I do not want to add to that total. I guess I'm just worried that maybe these stories are getting past their sell by dates.
