Hi all
I now have 3 chapters published of my 1st story.
I am looking for some feedback on the story so far and advice as to is it worth continuing?
I thought I was done with chapter 2 but 3 formed in my head over time.
I can think of where the sex would go in a fourth chapter but no narrative.

chapter 3

I slso have a fresh story pending at the moment.
 
Three is a magic number. If you're thinking 'eh, I could write a fourth,' but the thought of it doesn't excite you, maybe repurpose that sex to a new series.
 
I think you should move on to the next story idea.

You can always come back and write a fourth chapter, but when you write that you have "no narrative" for a Chapter 4, it sounds to me like there's nothing that really needs to be resolved.

I skimmed chapter 3 without reading the first two chapters and I didn't feel like it would be a bad ending if there never was a chapter 4.

I have started using the snowflake method to have some kind of plot before I start writing to avoid this kind of issue.

An opposing view is that you have 51 people following you and another chapter that was mostly sex would, I'm sure, be welcomed by many.
 
If you are needing to ask us here if you should continue, then I say no. You are clearly not sure, in that case it might be time to put that piece aside - for the moment anyway. I don't write unless I'm happy to write. Otherwise, it's a chore, and no fun. Follow the fun!
