So, just like last time, I need your help here. The details are as follows:

Platform: SH, AO3

Story type: Original. (@Nifty gave me this really cool idea about an assassin who can't kill his target, and then ends up with them! It already smells like crack XD)

Chapter length: 2k words.

Words which I can comfortably write per day: 2k-3k (something came up that I will be needing to do in the mornings, so 3k might not be something I can manage every day.)

Hype: 100%

Headache: 0% (the new glasses are really worth it, even if I have to forget about pizza for the next two months.)

The question is as follows:

How many chapters per week do I post, and should I build a backlog before posting? And if so, how big of a backlog? Just 10 chapters, or I can get away with 5?

You are welcome to vote in the poll! =)

Man...just do like 2

As for backlogs, mmm, usually 20 is recommended, but you can easily scrap by with 5

Wait until you have work. You won't have time for anything. Haha!

4-5 times is fine.
I have a job and still churn out a novella per week. I am sure he can do the same. =)

Thanks for the answer!

2 per week is it I think. Especially because you're writing this to have fun. Too much can start feeling annoying,

You have more strength than me then. Hahah.

Hey, it's okay. Plenty of people don't plan and just write chapters on a fly. Plenty people have a weekly upload schedule. You will be fine, we are all weirdos here.
