Do you have backlogs for your stories? If so, then why do you feel you need them? If not -- then why not?
Also please share your actual number of backlog chapters (if you have any) and your comfortable or ideal ones.
Lately, I get very frustrated because my backlog is creeping to an uncomfortable number of chapters before the publishing deadline. So I wanted to know what other people consider comfortable or at least acceptable number -- ideally or not (because we can all dream, right? ^^)

Myself, I can't write without a backlog because I write a plot-heavy mystery with political intrigue. If I don't have a backlog, there WILL BE plotholes. Only a ~comfy amount of backlog chapters allows me to avoid them. (so far)
My ideal would be at least 30 chapters but oh well
My comfortable number is 12+ chapters released at 3/week, thus giving me a full month worth of backlog.
My actual number is now 9+ which is ... making me sweat profusely and giving me constant panic attacks of slipping even lower than that!
