I don't think it's the sunk cost fallacy - if you're having fun, you should keep going. Your best work is still in your future.

Unsolicited silly advice: you're probably going to have to revise more in that future.

if you're having fun

I have to say that I still am - I just managed to turn "Punch and Judy" of all things into a significant plot element. :)

Your best work is still in your future.

I certainly hope so.

you're probably going to have to revise more

By 'revise', do you mean in the British sense of studying to get my background details straight, or the American sense of rewriting to improve previously existing text?
