I had a moment of not doing things in sequence, for some reason this morning I had this idea of re-reading AYAMII, AYAMIII and AYAMIV since I hadn't read them for a while.
I read them then as something of an after thought I re-read AYAM. AYAM feels so different to me from II, III and IV - it lacks kind of the depth and detail which came to the later fics, me learning to write such stuff and not being sure about some things.
It is almost 9 years since I posted that original AYAM (looks like I released it to the world on 9th November 2002) and I just wanted to reach for a pen and start re-working bits and filling in gaps (or gapping hole in part of it) - is this the writer's version of the director's cut done years later like was done with Children of the Gods?
Other than fixing the occasional typo I haven't tweaked it since it was first posted (unlike AYAMII which got tweaked before AYAMIII was posted). Maybe I should do a printout which I can take the pen to, see how it would feel, see what I can do with it?
Has anybody else gone back to one of their earlier fics and revamped it?
