Here's one for the writers: If you have stories posted online, have you ever gone back and looked at them later and found one that you thought wasn't merely drivel or not-so-good - but one you truly hated? If so, did you delete it or leave it there....? I have one of those, and have forced myself to leave it alone....for now. |

Hated? Wow. Are you going to tell us which one? I'd be curious to know what causes that kind of reaction in you. I don't have nearly the volume you do, but there's one I've posted that I've contemplated making some changes to, but haven't gotten around to it. There's another I wrote where as soon as I finished it I knew it was a total hunk of junk, so it never saw the light of day. |

Well....I don't want to inflict it on anybody! It makes me cringe - literally. There are a couple of others where I'd definitely take a different approach, if I were writing them today, but this one was just simply and unequivocally AWFUL!

If it wasn't the 4th in a 5-part series (where I really like #5 a lot), it would be long gone. Maybe, eventually, I will write a replacement #4.... |

There were a couple of stories I almost didn't post that turned out to be someone's favorite. (A direct hint to a certain, unnamed writer.....!)

I started one recently, but I couldn't get it going, so I scrapped it. I've like all of yours that I have read- I wouldn't delete them. What didn't you like about it? I'd be interested to hear what problems other writers have, since I am so new at this. |

The one I absolutely detest....should never have been salvaged. But one of the ones I debated about involved Jaime going after a serial rapist. Just thought the subject matter was a little too intense. But I put it out there anyway and someone wrote to tell me it was one of their all-time favorites. If I have an in-progress story that isn't ringing bells of joy with me, I'll usually put it aside and go back to it a few weeks later. Sometimes a different angle (rather than scrapping it altogether) can make the difference. |

Another related question: Have you ever posted a story, thought better of it...and pulled it? |

No, but I've written some and then thought BEFORE I posted them - and didn't post. |

Yeah, I've never put one up and then pulled it. My writing is far too protracted a process for me to do something off the cuff like that! I did write one and then not post it. I certainly have some half explored ideas lying around. |

Yeah, me too, Messyhead. About 4 or 5 abandoned stories in My Documents. Never did pull that clinker off of fanfic.... |

Isn't it fun to look back at some of our older stuff and see how much we've grown?

Sadly, I'm not sure I've grown that much I have a hard time going back through a story I've mainly finished and changing it too much. I try not to let that happen, but sometimes I get to the end and realize there are major changes needed. THAT is tough to do - and I'm often just not motivated.
