Do you like reading your own stories?

Like say, after editing them and such, does whatever you write interest you? Would you read your own story/stories if they existed and you didn't write them?

Yes. I like my own work :) I feel that its my way to respect and honor my own creation. So I'm the kind of person that values my own pieces like a precious valuable art even when others dont .

Yes, I would. I do that sometimes even with current fics. I read the few chapters before it to continue writing - it helps with the flow.

I hate reading my own writing man! I just cringe the entire way through. But if someone else wrote it, hell yeah I'd read 'em lol. It's weird because when you're looking over your writing, you're too personally acquainted with it. It's easy to pick out the flaws.

If I weren't the writer, I would certainly read my own stories. Sometimes I read my own writing anyway, but usually months (sometimes years) after they're written so it has a different impact on me looking back at it. :3
