I love rereading my own fic. It's a story I love (for an itch that rarely gets scratched) and naturally I'm going to feel its well written.

It can be a good feeling, no doubt. But that doesn't make it the same feeling as finding new, fresh stories from other people's perspectives with similar but not exactly the same headcanons or things you would never have thought of or considered, so I understand where people are coming from with that.

Yeah, but come back after a good amount of time, and it'll feel like something new.

I'm kind of jealous of you, anon! When I reread my own work, it's even odds on whether I'll think it's well-written. I'm often able to see nothing but the flaws.

I enjoy rereading my own fic too, nonnie, but it's still not the same as reading the output of, and being surprised and delighted by, someone else's imagination.

I want to read the kind of thing I *can't* imagine, because by definition I can't imagine it.

Doesn't work for everyone, though. Personally, I don't like rereading my own work, even after time has passed. I still see it with an author/editor's eye and I'm busy noticing the mistakes or things I'd do differently, and I can't really enjoy the story.
