Regarding updates on all of my stories... · 2:50am May 24th, 2018
Right now I'm mainly focus on updating The Ties that Bind as I have all this time, but, barring my weekends, I more or less only have one time slot each day to write my stories.
So I ask you all as readers, should I continue to update TTtB everyday like I have been and the rest of the stories whenever I can, or focus on a more stable cycle by writing a different chapter for each story everyday?
EDIT: The more I think about it, the better I think it is to just do the latter, but I still wanna know what you guys think.
Dear author that should be your choice
Do as your creativity said, not always will bring you the chapters for the same history
Quantity doesn't go over quality, so you should write what you want, when you want, when you feel like it

I think that's what I'll do, though I can assure you the quality won't suffer either way.
I agree that you should do whatever makes you most fulfilled.
From my standpoint as a member of the audience, there is something extra special about getting involved in a story that updates frequently. When I am avidly reading a story that updates every day or three, I look forward to refreshing my feed that much more. Seeing a new chapter of a story I am following puts a smile on my face, and I like that dopamine hit to happen as often as it can. (Me addicted? Naw).
Some authors generate this effect by writing chapters in arcs over a longer period and then releasing the arc over a short period of time. I did that with an entire novel length story, just to replicate the feeling I enjoy in the readers who were following it. In retrospect, I'm not sure it was the best decision.
Again, please do whatever gives you the most fulfillment. Your writing is a gift to the community, and I and your fans very much appreciate it.
