Man, that's awesome that you like to reread your stories. I'm not there yet with my writing where I want to return to it but usually when I walk away I still feel pretty satisfied with whatever I've shared. I think I have to be away from them for a loooong time to separate myself from them to enjoy them. I've never really thought about reading them from a craft perspective though, that might be interesting to do actually!
It totally makes sense that if you're working genre-specific there's a necessity to think about audience and that that is going to shape whatever your personal interests are too to some extent, but that's cool that he's found a way to work within that (lol Succession inspo, NICE). LMAO I do remember that post about no profanity actually. XD
the times when i consciously try to back away from thinking about just me is when i'm worried about being too self-indulgent... and there simply wasn't a way to do it without committing Pacing Crimes
This all makes sense! I do this as well. Thank you for the thorough response hahaha! <3
