Rewriting Old Stories?

<< < (2/5) > >>

RokofAges75:
I've thought of doing that with some of my old stories, cause I still like the ideas of them and know I could do so much more with them now, but I think I'd get bored with it.  If there comes a day when I'm out of new ideas and still want to write fanfic, though, maybe I will do that.

Purpura Lipstick:
I have one that I actually started a long while ago called "I, Nikolas" and *gasps* it was about Nick from his POV.  I liked the idea but it never went anywhere and got darker then I originally intended... so yeah trashed that one but I've always pondered retrying it.

MellzBellz:
I've never really rewritten anything except ideas that I've had previously and never quite got past a first chapter. Under my Skin to some extent was a rewrite of a previous fan fic, but it was more like incoporating the ideas from that into UMS. I've considered writing a prequel to UMS which I assume would prolly be more of a rewrite to this other fic, but by the time I finish ALTOS I might just be ready to be done w/ Nick and Alyssa.

nicksgal:
I have a list somewhere on my computer about every story I ever started writing, where it is in the writing process, who'd in it, etc. etc.

There's a few I've thought about rewriting, but never got around to it yet. When I originally made that list, I kind of came to the conclusion that a story I had started writing years ago had a similar basic plot idea to PBox... Only PBox is way more interesting. lol

But, I always say, if you're in love with the plot and the characters, go for it. :)

Agreed!  I think that's what makes a good story all around, if the author is passionate about the plot/characters you can really tell in their writing
