So deleted a couple stories that hadn't been touched in YEARS.

    So apologies to Daciasdesire and Zingibar for deleting your threads. They were GREAT, and I appreciate the hell out of them, but they were on stories that I had abandoned, and only was keeping around for their work.

    Looking back, I can see that I hadn't really created much of a good environment in either of them, since both were designed for people to add to, rather than ones that I WANTED to write. I hope to soon start another one with a little bit more accessibility, but I'm kinda stuck on what to do. Half tempted to try to restart the space opera one, but I see that folks have got that pretty much covered.

    About the only one that keeps running through my head is "80's Porn Movie" as a joke, complete with the OH GOD IT'S RON JEREMY joke...

    Damn, I hate seeing abandoned projects once you see how much potential there was in them, a What could have been but never was feel to it. What was the story you deleted and what was it about?

    Under my old pen name I created one called "Tramp Freighter" which was my Han Solo/Firefly style story with a male or female captain. Never really got that far into it, and people didn't like the characters, so I dumped it.

    The other one I dropped was an attempted remake of "Sex with Consequences" that fixed the problems, and again, didn't work.

    You know I remember seeing that one, the sex with consequences one but I don’t recall much about it. That’s a shame, sounds like it had promises but I totally understand. Sometimes you strike gold, other times you just strike.
