: Re: What happens when I get bored of a story I'm writing? I have several stories on hold because either I am not able to post them at the time, or they are incomplete and do not plan to finish

If the story is so boring for you that you can't get yourself to finish writing it, chance is more than good the story will be too boring for the reader to finish reading it.

Drop it, scrap it, or at best rework it into something completely different, possibly trimming it into a short open-ended story or reusing best parts as fragments of a different work. Regardless, in current form, it's dead. Trying to force yourself to finish it in current form won't result in anything remotely good.
