Sometimes I kind of feel like a weirdo for still writing something I started in 2007 when I had just barely gotten into the online fanfiction world and had no idea what I was doing. But I can't help still loving my old stories and wanting to finish them. I still read the stuff I wrote as a kid and enjoy it. Plus with my main pokemon story, I think seeing the improvement from the first chapters is cool.

Of course I understand why people don't want to finish their old stories. I realize I'm an outlier. xD
I have a bunch of old stories I never finished. Sometimes it's because you had that bang awesome idea that you had to get down on paper, but then you never thought about how it's supposed to keep going and get to the end once all the juicy stuff got covered. I feel that way with the PMD fic I started long ago back when PMD was fresh and new. It started great and was fun and it eventually went to Nowhereland because I had absolutely nothing in mind for an ending or even a real conflict at hand.

The manuscript I've been trying to get published was started back in 2007 too, so that's not weird to me you're still going with something you started eleven years ago! I tried to start a sequel to it, but yeah, it's just not hitting any sweet spots and originally I didn't intend for it to have sequels so it's probably better off not going that route.
