Write Away

I think it's entirely up to you what you want to get out of it, and not anyone else's business, frankly. If you get joy from the simple act of creation, you are under no obligation to show it to anyone, nor to try to "improve," whatever that means in this context. If getting the stories out of your head and onto a screen suffices for you, then that's your deal. Anyone who says different is sticking their nose in where it doesn't belong.

And nothing says it's set in stone either. If you change your mind, no one should say "boo."

But I'm a big believer in free choice.
