Thanks for the suggestions. I've opened an AO3 account but haven't uploaded anything yet. You're probably right that I'm stressing too much about things.

Back to the other point you made - about your emotional investment in a fic and going through a 'mourning period' when you've finished it. Have you considered re-visiting that world, or those characters, by writing another story set in that same universe rather than going back to the earleir fic?

That's what I've done with my other Reckoning AU in the Seeker-verse. It's more of a series of short stories rather than one long fic. I originally intended to only write one short story, but I became so fond of the AU that I've just kept adding stories, slowly aging the characters up. It might be a way to keep the emotional connection going, as well as to further develop certain themes or points that were a part of the earlier story.

It seems you've actually done this with several of your original fics.
