I wonder if those who don't much like serials dislike reading a lot (by which I mean longer written pieces of any kind) online anyway? I'd rather be sitting in an armchair reading myself rather than in front of my PC but I'm prepared to suffer for this site, LOL
I can't say that I really dislike reading serials, I just tend not to do so. A few that I've read I've enjoyed, but others I have found tedious (pretty much like anything). If I'm going to invest time in reading a lot, I'd rather have the variety of several stories rather than a longer single story. I consider a serial different from a a troy with sequels, in that it is often a single story, with a planned beginning middle and end (as stated by Goodgulf) rather multiple distinct stories with the same characters (at least some of them). tend to prefer the former (serials) to the latter (sequels), but that's just in general.
But I am NOT someone who refrains from reading longer works in general. I'm an avid reader of both fiction and non-fiction novels of a wide range (and long ones as well as short ones). As much as I like stories about spanking (even having written a few), I find that my interest in something longer than a few thousand words pretty much depends on it being about something more than spanking. I can enjoy an episode about a couple into spanking, or suspend disbelief in order to enjoy a more far-fetched scenario, but in many cases (not all), I begin to find tedious waiting for the next spanking to occur. I want to be clear that this is just ME; it is not meant denigrate the very fine writing that goes into many wonderfully written stories (and serials) here.
