Is continuing to write the story I started, that's turned into a novel, a good use of my time, or am I suffering a version of the sunk cost fallacy, and I would do better abandoning the story and starting something new (and presumably more properly rationalist), now that I've gotten my writing muscles properly exercised and in working order?
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.
I have to say that I still am - I just managed to turn "Punch and Judy" of all things into a significant plot element. :)
I certainly hope so.
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?
