Ever re-read one of your old stories and say to yourself "gosh, somebody else wrote that?"

This is the story I just read: The Green Rose

I was a different person four years ago. I wouldn't have noticed but for that story.
 
Argh. I'm going through a bout of this right now. I'm editing my renaissance stories and trying to write a third part to the series. I cannot even grasp the mindset I had when I wrote them. It's like driving around in the fog, looking for something you know has to be there. :(

It really adds to the respect of those authors who write sequel after sequel over a very large time frame, doesn't it?

No, it's probably gone...

I bet you're a riot with a TV remote too
id agree but i don't manage the remote. i leave that to my wife....i have other things to do with my fingers.
 
Semi-rewrote my first piece about a month ago.

I didn't have much trouble finding the same mind set.

Ask me again in a couple of years.

Yeah, it does, if they can do it well and not lag or have continuity problems.

You're probably right. That'll teach me that the next time a story has momentum, to write it and not put it off for something else.

I am going through that very thing these days. I am submitting my first one for review/advice tommorrow. I have yet to post one at Literotica and have been pouring over and perusing stories I wrote 20 yrs ago. And occassionaly I read one and think "What the hell was I thinking"? :D

Tell that to the dildo manufacturers

They never listen.

I stopped sending them ideas for new products years ago. They're inflexible.

I'm sure your ideas are great, but they're probably impractical from a technogical standpoint.

I should hope so.

A certain amount of rigidity is necessary in dildo manufacturing, don't you think?
 
Very much. Especially with my older stories, such as "Nicole's Needs". "Ted Takes Charge" is not bad, for a story that has an absurd number of ejaculations. It's salvageable. But "Nicole's Needs" seem to include SERIOUS revision! I'm embarrassed to have in my list. The whole plotline needs drastic restructuring! :eek: Same "Kirsten's Incestuous Orgy", which is not on Lit, as well as the follow-up series "Cassie's Turn" and the basic incest/harem fantasy series "Charles's Gorgeous Guardian". My point being that most of my most embarrassing stories are not on Lit, thank the Gods.

I plan to redo them drastically before I put them here. "Paying The Piper" and "Hank & His Neighbors- Ch. 5" are pushing it as it is. They're not too bad, except that a candid and unbiased reviewer would probably recommend mentioning the Viagra or Cialis :eek: :rolleyes: that the men in question clearly took to fuck that many girls that many times. Hmmm....yes, I think that I should mention that in the revised version. Not make them lessly studly. Just give them potency pills. :devil: Or simply let them take a breather between clusterfucks.

I've noticed this a lot with my work recently. I just had a big idea for a prequel/sequel to my biggest story and had to cancel it in part because I had changed from the person who wrote the original into someone else. {sighs} Oh well, all my work is different anyway. God only knows what I'll put out next, or when.

Yeah, right. A single fatality among two dozen test subjects, and suddenly my prototype is 'dangerous' and 'bizarre.'
