I can relate. When I first started writing "Soil & Trouble", I only had a vague idea of where I wanted to go with the story and because of that, I was able to produce chapters at a steady rate and basically write by the seat of my pants. But when I felt that my writing had improved significantly compared to where I was when I first started, I looked back at what I was doing and honestly...felt pretty ashamed. I guess it was a cohesive narrative but it was pretty lacking. I couldn't exactly erase everything that I had propped up but I could at least move forward in a better direction than where I was headed. But in order to do that, I'd have to think very carefully about what I would be putting out and that's why the story's currently not been touched in about two months.
