As I mentioned in some story comments...

I'm beginning to suspect that EOF, Ang, Maggie, and a few other authors all got together and decided to hold a cliffhanger contest.

Now that we're all hanging off of half a dozen cliffs, has a winner been declared?

Comments

I'd vote...

...for Lilith. Her muse is very fickle, so she'll start writing a story, get the plot really moving, then her muse will assault her with another story idea; which, naturally, she starts writing before it goes away. Rinse and repeat. Having said that, as with all authors here, she does have a life away from her word processor, so it's entirely possible that some of the delays are caused by various things happening in real life (the infamous RLS - Real Life Syndrome).

Mercifully, her muse does occasionally slacken the pace, thus allowing Lil to go back to previous stories and continue / complete them. You just have to exercise patience :)

Oh, and talking of patience, I haven't given up on Chicago Water Torture - I will get around to completing the current (final) chapter... eventually! I've also got a fairy tale mashup and Petra 2 partially written and awaiting time / motivation / inspiration to continue. Assuming I don't get sidetracked into reading dozens of new stories posted up here, or decide it's about time I actually tackled a rather severe backlog of ironing...


As the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body, then only left-handers are in their right mind!

And as I've said elsewhere as well...

The jury is still out... I'll check in with them once I get the chance to, as I'm writing with a few of them over in DRU. ;)

Peace be with you and Blessed be

Cliffhanger competition?

...with the authors you just cited, I would gather that the readers are the winners here, aye?

Maybe...

Or we could just be the tortured.

Yes...

and yes. In that order.

EOF =Ruler of cliffhangers

EOF is the current undisputed ruler of cliffhangers. He knows how to do them really really well . I.E most recent example would be the ending of For the fairest.

acknowledge "Dark Realm Universe"

Not a contest, as writers stepping out to grab the Moon
And write a larger work together, while writing their own stories
I view it as exceptional.

Agree with Andrea, we are the winners

I suspect if one thinks it is presently a cliffhanger
hold on, I think the story might still be building

Is too late to enter? I'll likely be participating in the cliffhanger action very soon :P


Have delightfully devious day,

Nope...

Feel free to join the party!

What?!? Me?!

I don't believe I would ever leave readers waiting in anticipation after a cliffhanger. Nope, doesn't sound like me. Not at all.

cliff hangers, do I? I simply thought it was breaking things up into easily digestible parts.
