I understand what you mean about WIP, I now have a new system because I really can not follow every WIP and understand what is going on when I read as many fandom as I do.
I now will read the summary and the first few chapters as a preview. If a like what I see I bookmark the story. When it is done then Ill read it. If I LOVE the story in the preview read AND the author has a good update time table(like zosifo did) Ill read as she updates. But I really don't have time to reread the story every time an author take 3 months to update. If no updates after a year I think the aurthor has abanded the story and remove it from my list.
I also started to look at how many WIP a person will have if there is 15 and nothing has been finished I will double think on spending the time on the story. I break that rule for 3 authors but I know them so ...
As a write I NEVER post a WIP, because I know me. I don't think its fair to a reader that you gave me your time and I dropped the story etc.
