Hi Everyone,
I am in the process of publishing a "novel" - a story with 15 chapters. But at the same time, I am working (off and on) on a sci-fi story that promises to be much longer. My question is how long do you feel a story can get before it gets boring and readership fades? I know one thing is the writer's ability to hold the reader's attention, but is there a point where you should just drop it and walk away? What is the longest story here on Lush already? Not that I want to go for a record I just want to know if I should continue this endeavor. I am on the 10th chapter and still have lots of ideas left for it!
if the story is good, it won't get boring no matter how long it is. if it's not good, it'll probably be boring after one chapter.
readership will fade, no matter how good the story, with each chapter. that's just the nature of serial chapters here - my advice, tho, is to publish each chapter a week apart, if possible. the longer the gap, the more likely people will kind of forget about it.

Yeah but, last chapter on my story took one day to be verified, the following chapter submitted on 17 Jan still isn't..........I don't get the inconsistency?
And at the risk of biting the hand etc I get that they are volunteers, but so are the authors.
With great power comes great responsibility
not sure i'd describe the authors as volunteers. amateurs, yes, but not volunteers.
also, unless you some how have been fooled into thinking the mods are variations of spiderman, your quote makes absolutely no sense. what great power? you think that this is a position of power somehow? btw, if you want to fast track your stories, feel free to go gold.

I can't get away with full-on nudism, but often wear just briefs around the house in summer (no pics handy right now). TBH, I am a nudist at heart, just doesn't fit with my reality.
wasn't aware that apes were briefs. embrace your gorillaness, man! do the full monty!

Actually I think there is something to that - if you state details with confidence and plausability, it sounds like you've done the research, the details themselves don't matter (my series of Shards on uploading video to a porn site had made-up details or details I culled from uploading onto Youtube) (really!!!).
Maybe that explains the upswing in fake news.
all depends on the details and what you're writing. if it's an fantasy story, as in elves and shit, than yeah, as long as it doesn't push the borders of disbelief, people will just accept it.
