Please help me decide?

Let's get to the point.

I think this account is a whole messed-up . I don't know why I felt that way, though. This account has been with me for long enough and I was content to let it like that. Only, the problem is, I don't think I can continue any of my story anymore since it's been too long I've been abandoning them.

So, I'm thinking of deleting all of my stories here. Yes, all. I love my subs, and am grateful of them for reading and subscribing, and even commenting for some of, my stories. But it's useless to have them when I'm not even finishing what they've been waiting for. Um, does that sound arrogant? I'm sorry. Like, I said before, this account is messed.

I'm gonna change my user-name too. For something more simple, perhaps. I've got something in mind lately. But, holy duck, it's increased from 250 to 500 just to change my user-name? o.o

If anyone read this, which I doubt wholeheartedly (cause I know this is not that important for you), would you please give me some opinions? Should I just do it or keep it like this? Or you could suggest some modification and other things? I'm gonna wait, like, two or three days maybe. And, if you do read this, thank you :)

Hey there Pandan :D first of all, Happy Holidays! I've really missed talking to you.

I don't think you should delete them. Don't be pressured to complete any stories because writing should be done for fun. Just tell all of your subs that you're discontinuing your stories and I'm sure that they will understand. I had the same problem before on a different site and I decided to delete everything. Now I'm regretting it. I believe that all stories are a part of us. No matter how terrible we think they are, they all represent the different parts of our experience as writers who are learning with time. So I hope you don't delete them, Pandan. I really love all of your stories :)

I hope we can talk again soon :) I really miss you Pandan! *sobs* I loves you :D
But no matter your choice, I'll support you. ^_^
Take care my lovable Pandan ^.^ I'll always be here for you. :)

If I were you, I won't delete the stories. No matter what you think of your stories, it's still contains all of your effort and time and mind at that time when you wrote them. It's precious. I believe in the future you're going to read it again and maybe laugh at it because you think it's crappy as hell. But, still, early stories are precious.
Don't worry about all of your subs, you can give them notice that you're story is discontinued or hiatused, but don't delete them just because you feel awful to them. I've been through the same thing two years ago, but somebody then suggest me not to delete my discontinued-story and I'm grateful with my choice back then. Until now, my early stories are still my most favorite thing to write because I wrote it wholeheartedly without giving a damn to grammar and such (lol) but it was really fun, kk.

personally, i'd be against deleting your stories. i understand where you're coming from with not having any remaining inspirations to continue your stories, but honestly, i'd suggest keeping them up for just the hell of it. lol i sound like such a horrible hypocrite cause i deleted and removed most of my unfinished stories. /hypocrite) but in the case of the stories you've already started, subscribers may want to go back to it and read it at a future time. and who knows, maybe some time in the future, you'll want to go back and read it as well, just to see how much you've improved - or something, cause who knows, maybe in the future, you'll want to rewrite it or something. in that case, if you don't want to raise any hopes of a possible continuation, you could fix the main page to inform new and or old readers that the story is dropped. idunno? or you can just leave it as is. readers tend to figure on their own that a story is dropped if it hasn't been touched in months.

as for the username change. lol. inorite? i miss the days when changing usernames was ... ... cheaper(?). i changed my username accidentally and it was like - good bye karma, i shall miss thee. /crey)

but like, don't worry about the unfinished story thing. i feel the same way going through my stories as well. i keep going like - nope, i'll finish this someday! but we all know i'm far too lazy to do that. /otl) - is why i'm working on only one or two story at once. /bricked) anyways. good luck on whatever you decide to do. good luck? otl is that even appropriate to say here? /howtoenglish)
