Due to the possibility I may revisit these stories in the future, I appreciate if those interested would place any thoughts/observations/discussion here. This way the stories will continue to flow in a continuous fashion. Thank you for your understanding and support.

I love Ordinary! I like the way it is written in the first person and it would be an interesting story to follow. I completely understand you not having finished it though. Maybe one day you will write some more!

Thanks. I hope to finish it eventually. I say that about a lot of my work though. 
I considered turning it into a multi-chapter third person story like much of what I write, but decided to leave it as is for now. Maybe some day if I have another idea that I can add to it.

That's how I felt about Bite Me. I've occasionally had the idea to go back and do more with it but ultimately it stands on its own well enough.

Exactly. I'm always afraid to overwork an idea and diminish the quality. Sometimes you just have to stop yourself. Set it free.

That's the way! Overworking an idea can be the wrong thing to do! Sometimes instinct is best. Write what you feel and leave it!

Yep. Leaving it can be hard, but ultimately for the best.

And the good thing is even if it is a couple of years down the road you can still come back to it!
