23. How long does it usually take you to complete an entire story—from planning to writing to posting (if you post your work)?

It depends, is my short answer.

Some things I haven't completed. Some things I complete in a month's time (hi, Of Bastard Saints) or in a day (hi, most of the things I wrote in Losers fandom). Sometimes I work with an outline, sometimes not, sometimes I let people see things in progress, sometimes not. It's all a big question mark depending on length, emotional intensity, complexity of the plot. And so on.

Yeah, I really don't like that question much.

*nods* I like your answer, because the answer:
Indefinite, Try Again Later

lets me live in hope that another chapter of the Retriever verse will be posted any day, and that I should just keep refreshing *nods*

NO WAY......I love that verse so much, I wasn't sure whether to ask for another chapter or to wait patiently in hope. All of the chapters are lyrical, I really like re-reading them.
