To import or not to import?
2 Apr 2010 02:05 amI am slowly but surely moving all my fic across to AO3. It is taking a while. Now, the big question: do I move across all the really old, horrible early fic I wrote (and when I say 'early' I mean stuff I wrote in the 90s!) that has now been thoroughly Jossed in plot as well as character development and motivation? Or do I disavow all knowledge? It's still up on the Pit of Voles, so some people still see it occasionally. OTOH, there's something to be said for having all my stuff in one place, even if it's the horrible early poetry I wrote when I was - gulp - in my teens. Thoughs?
