Why won't you work?!?!
Jun. 5th, 2008 06:37 pmSo, I got over that writer's block just to have another block.
I have a problem: I've written this long fic (Wolfram x Murata), up to chapter 12. The main plot comes to an end in chapter 8, and these extra chapters read more as a different story in the same "continuity" (which I didn't want to do).
I have three choices:
1) Cut out the extra chapters, and write an Epilogue with those extra chapters condensed down into it (or as oneshots).
2) Continue with the extra chapters under the same story, and risk readers losing interest (or going WTF?!) when the main plot ends.
3) Split the story in two.
The main plot doesn't resolve with the couple getting together. The extra chapters attempt to show the couple getting together (showing the romance essentially), but the main plot has already be solved. So, what would you do in this situation?
