Not beta read: makes me more likely to notice errors
Struggled with prompt: really depends on wording, but most of the time, even if it implies they didn't like my prompts or resented having to consume canon or whatever, I don't care

I've never received a "there will be more!" and I'm not sure how I'd feel. If the first part was mediocre, I wouldn't be enthusiastic about more, and most of the time when I've seen it in the wild, it's a excuse rather than a promise. "Please don't be mad that this sucks, here's an IOU."
