: Re: Do you always revise your stories or do you sometimes move on? When you finish a story, say a short story, not really intending to publish. Do you go back and revise it or let it be,

There are some stories that are just there to get thoughts out of your head. For me, if it's a complete story and something that I have the slightest interest in after I have finished a draft, I'll revise it. It may not happen right away, but give it a while and go back for a revision.

My reasoning behind this is it helps with the stories you ARE intending to publish. If you can learn to cut out the stuff you don't need and find what is missing in every story you write, even ones you don't necessarily care about, the ones you do care about will be that much better.
