Hello everyone,
So, if you follow me at all on fanfiction ( www.fanfiction.net/u/3922903/DeadlyFandoms ) you'll know that I've been writing a TSOM fanfiction called "Better than a dream", I've been writing this for some time, but, unfortunately, due to personal circumstances, I've been unable to update for quite some time. This means that any ideas I had in my head about the story are gone and I have no written plans for any chapters beyond the ones that are already published.
I really want to get the next chapter written soon, and whilst I have started it, I am now stuck because I have absolutely no idea where the story is going to go or what I want to write without it feeling like it's dragging. As of this moment, I feel as though I have two options. The first one is to simply wrap the story up and end it (this would take one or two chapters) they benefits of this would be that it would finally be finished and I wouldn't have to worry about letting people down whenever i have a late update. However, I'm not sure what kind of ending could do it justice or even if it should end at this point.
The other option that I have considered is writing about the Anschluss. If I did this, it would mean that I could squeeze a good few more chapters out of the story (if that's what people want) but, the Anschluss hasn't really been mentioned at all throughout the story so I feel as though it may seem a bit odd or desperate if I were to suddenly include it. Furthermore, there have been so many hurdles for Maria and Georg to overcome that I worry it may be tiresome for them to have yet another; and, in my mind, I had always planned to write about it.
So, I'm asking for your opinion, do you think I should go with one of the two ideas that I have mentioned or do you think I should do something else? Please let me know if you have any ideas at all or anything that you want to see; I'm always happy to listen to advice and criticism and I'm in desperate need of some help right now.
Thank you!
Georgia.
