Occasionally I do, either because someone finds one years later and makes a comment that I want to reply to and can't remember what I wrote (advancing Alzheimer's perhaps?) or occasionally just for fun. I found in posting my old story "Trabbian Justice" here that some of the paragraph spacings didn't carry over, so I had to go through it again.
I love all my stories at the time I post them, or I wouldn't post them (I have many that I don't). In re-reading them, I find that the majority do hold up. A few I wonder, "Why in hell did I write that?" and a few I think read better now than they did the first time, aging well like a good wine (wish I could say the same about my knees!).
This weekend, I got a PM on another site from someone who told me that he has re-read a couple of my stories many times. That touched me. One of them is the part of "Trabbian Justice" starting at Chapter 12 here.
I'm curious if any of you have thoughts on this.
