I don't know what to suggest, really, other than perhaps putting it on hiatus for a while and coming back to it again in a few months to see how you feel about it then.
I still have the Halloween special hooker!verse crack!fic left on my hard drive that I have to finish. I can post it ! See it's not dead, I enjoy reading them even though I never comment (sorry for being horrible like that)
I still have story ideas that I want to write, when I get time and energy. Ultimately, the choice is yours.
Chances are good that, even if you do end the Hooker!Verse (I'm not sure how you would), people would write it anyway. If you would end it by gracefully drawing the stories to a close, you could make a sort-of event, where you asked the Hooker!Verse authors to brainstorm ideas and then come up with fanfics to end them, so that there was a harmony in the way the verse tied up all it's loose endings. That way, it would get at least a final 'hurrah', and people could still write Hooker!Verse fics if they wanted, but the ending of the verse would be clear.
Just to be clear: There's nothing that says you *have* to end it, just because people aren't writing for it right at this moment. Absolutely nothing.
...dammit, now I'm getting an idea for a fanfic about Joe and Mary. I'll write it this Sunday.
If you end the Hooker!Verse, that's your decision, JUST DON'T END IT BEFORE SUNDAY!
And I said I don't want it to die. It's my baby girl and I have fates and ends all planned out.
It's just rachelle was the best author in the verse and now she's left and I feel stranded. I'm NOT bitching at her, she deserves the best in life and I won't blame her if she hates me for this, I'm just a pathetic child with abandonment issues.
Okay, now that I'm back from class and my choir rehearsal I can actually sit down at type an explanation at you. A few things:
1.) My leaving isn't because I was dissatisfied with your 'verse. Honest to God, that's not it. The H!Verse is sad and dark and twisty in just the right ways, and if you end it forever just because I'm gone from the TGWTG fandom I will honestly sit down and cry right here in my living room, I swear.
2.) ...I'm the best? Um...what about Freya, who encourages everyone's madness with her wordy brilliance? What about you, who makes me cry in ways a robot never should because I'll rust and stop working? Just because I'm gone from the community doesn't mean I'll completely stop reading your fics, dollface. YOU ARE MAKING ME STAY IN, IF ONLY TANGENTIALLY
( ... )
Yes, I really do think you're the best. I'm okay, everyone else is fantastic, but your Stacey fic brought me out of terror that I had a brain tumor and your That Other Girl makes me feargasm. It just crushed me cos I thought I lost both that and you.
And I've got a lot more to write with all the ends planned out, I just firmly believe in that possibly selfish notion of why keep going if there's no audience for it.
