I can grow though? I'm not the fanfic author I was at 14? My fic then contained messages I would be horrified to give now. I don't want those messages getting to anyone. I have a kind of platform if you will to be able to erase that the way published authors can't.

You can add notes to old works on AO3 explaining what you hate about your old works and then orphan them, though.

Okay, mate, we get it - no one can read any of your work ever because omg, what if you grow and learn as a writer later and the thought that someone saw your earlier work causes you to spontaneously combust with mortification???

You on AO3 under the same name? I'll make a note.

[ayebydan]

Way to totally miss the point.

As it happens yes I am under the same name. And I am utterly mortified about some old works but there is a difference between thinking 'that is shit writing/plot/grammar' and 'urgh I don't like to send that message to others'.

But as others have mentioned the orphan option....it happens I don't trust that. I am not mortified about any of my work. I just feel responsible.

-nods in agreement in regards to Orphaning-

The Orphan option on AO3 isn't full-proof; I've tested it before and Googling copied text from the fic descriptions, even after being supposedly fully Orphaned, can reveal the original author's username sometimes.
