contains multitudes
I'm thinking of making Dreamwidth my fic repository. I'll post fic there, though I'll still link to it from here, but this LJ is going to be a more personal LJ. I've avoided posting anything that's not at least slightly fandom-related on lassiterfics, but I reckon it's time for a change. I've been contemplating making a fic masterlist also, since Remix Redux is apparently coming up. Maybe I'll put it up on Dreamwidth also. I was going to start making it tonight, but then I started going through my old fics and maybe started cringing.
With that preamble, a poll!

*dubious* All my CSI:NY fic is still up, but I try not to think about it very much; I never posted it anywhere besides my LJ. It's so out of date (first season! elaborate worldbuilding! extensive OCs! JOSSED LIKE WHOA) that I'm not sure anyone would actually be interested in it. So...the answer translates to, "I HAVE NO IDEa."

In response to your other question, I don't write a lot of fic, but I do have some really awful old Narnia ones still up on my journal. This is because at one point I took them down off of the (now obsolete) journal that I wrote them in, and then I started getting random stray comments from people who were looking for them, so I put them back up. Because you KNOW how annoying it is when you really just want to read some Peter/Susan and you follow a rec or a link and it's DEAD and then you kind of want to strangle the author a little bit for foiling you in your quest. YOU KNOW BECAUSE THIS HAS TOTALLY HAPPENED TO YOU, DON'T LIE. So don't do it to other people.

Fic Masterlist: Gah, it's nice to reflect that as you keep writing you really do get better, but I think most people have fics that could be dropped off a masterlist. By that I don't mean in badfic terms of popularity - since some really good stuff doesn't generate loads of feedback - but those sort meh fics that didn't work for one reason or another and don't particularly mean anything to you. Perhaps you could do a masterlist of stuff you really want to keep upfront and a sort of appendix of 'other works' so that they're available but not clogging out stories you'd really like people to find and read. (Er, this is really a personal reaction. 9/10 of the stuff I've written is totally throwaway.)

Hahah, despite not being entirely sure about what it is, I kind of want one. But apparently you need to pay to get one? Or you need an invite code? *is so confused*

As for stuff you no longer like, perhaps create a category of "old stuff" (or whatever), because even if you don't like it, someone else might. And at least by putting it in that category, you've somewhat acknowledged that it's not perhaps your best work.
