Look, I don& #39;t want to sound like a jerk here, but I have an issue and I think other authors have this too and just don& #39;t want to be the one to say it. So I will.

the writer to keep updating so you can read. That is literally so fucking rude. Even if you add like, "No pressure". Because we both know that& #39;s disingenuous. You aren& #39;t really saying no pressure. You are saying FULL PRESSURE and trying to make it seem like you& #39;re totally cool +

Either read it ongoing or shut the fuck up until it& #39;s complete.
We& #39;ve all filtered for complete fics before on AO3 and that& #39;s fine. It& #39;s totally cool. I understand not wanting to read +

something that& #39;s incomplete. But DO NOT go into a work in progress and comment that you can& #39;t wait to read. Do you know how shitty that makes a writer feel? Like even if you don& #39;t mean it that way, it makes you feel like your stories aren& #39;t good enough to read ongoing. I don& #39;t +
care what your original intention was. Stop. Stop doing that.
Secondly, if someone posts and idea that you aren& #39;t into, you don& #39;t have to say anything. Even if you like the author, you can just keep it moving. Yesterday I posted a clip of a WIP I& #39;m working on with a threesome +

No author who is posting free work owes you anything, so please stop. If you don& #39;t want to read incomplete fics, then I have like 20 complete fics. Or just wait. If you don& #39;t want to read a story of mine,
