Harmless Writing Advice

And Kraken answered a question of mine very astutely about whether or not to re-write older stories that don't seem to work anymore...

There are always examples that contradict my typical writing practise, but on the whole I believe that if my earlier work looks wrong to me, then it's far better to go and make something new with what I've learned than try to make the old stuff fall in line with my current thoughts...

...You can't "fix" everything you create, or you stop creating new stuff, and then your work would stop changing. You'd stagnate.

Something I should keep in mind whenever I feel like tearing up older stories in a fit of pique.

Now I really must get back to work. Gotta eat lunch first though...
