Personally, between deadline and reveals my stories always turn from “1200 word good start to a fic that I guess stands alone but isn’t very satisfying” to “actual story I meant to write, even if the ending is a little rushed” because that’s just how my brain works (the good stuff doesn’t come out until I’m under pressure like an orange in a juice squeezer). It’s not fun and I wish I could finish earlier with less stress, but my recipients have always been very pleased so I’m mainly the one who suffers haha.
