I'm still getting reviews and favorites for a fic I wrote over five years ago. It's a fic that I feel deeply embarrassed for now, but at the same time, people are obviously still enjoying it... so it feels selfish for me to want to hide it. I keep debating rewriting it to something that doesn't make me feel mortified, but at the same time...

I guess maybe the problem is more me, in that I can't seem to appreciate my old work.

See above, it is definitely not just you. My writing has changed so much in the last couple of years, plus I've just matured as a person and understand more pitfalls of fic writing (the main character in the story I'm rewriting is definitely Sue-ish, though I'm inclined to think she is at least an enjoyable Sue, if such a thing can exist).

It's a bit of a relief to know that I'm not alone. My writing style is constantly changing, and hopefully for the better.

But as it is now, just looking at the fic makes me cringe. It's mostly things like pacing and even choosing a specific characterization for one of the, er, characters. I mean, I could justify it and had situations to support that characterization, but I grew to deeply regret choosing that path.
