Active Stories, Dead Stories, and Stories I'm Embarrassed I Ever Wrote

I'm sure everyone on here has at least one story that falls into each of the categories. I know I sure as hell do.

Over the last 5 years, I've started (just started a new one yesterday actually lol), and never finished, so many different stories. I've even deleted some stories and I deeply regret that because I would at least like to be able to read them and reflect on where I was and how far I've developed as a writer.

So let's breakdown all my stories into categories!

A C T I V E ___ S T O R I E S

Monsters In Your Bed
_____ My first original fiction / Supernatural / Werewolves, faeries, and a bunch of other creatures

She's So Bright
_____ A John O'Callaghan fan fiction / Social Phobia

I Am More Than These Bones
_____ A John O'Callaghan AND Garrett Nickelsen fan fiction / Abusive ex-boyfriend


D E A D ___ S T O R I E S

I Am The Boy On Your Girlfriend's Lips
_____ My only Josh Franceschi fan fiction / Also featuring John O'Callaghan / Love triangle / My most popular story, kind of sad to see it go

Disintegrating (formerly Every Heart We Betrayed)
_____ Originally an Oli Sykes fan fic / A month ago I thought I wanted to make it an original fiction, but then I started to write "No Good Time For Bad News", I killed that, then started "I Am More Than These Bones" and figured there was no need to continue this story because it needed a complete remodel

Your Bones Are My Bones
_____ An Oli Sykes fan fiction / Fake marriage

Romance and Regrets
_____ A John O’Callaghan fan fiction / Past relationship + child

Alexithymia
_____ An Alex Gaskarth fan fiction / Alexithymia disorder


S T O R I E S __I ' M__E M B A R R A S S E D__I__E V E R__ W R O T E

Dear, June.
_____ A Jack Barakat + Alex Gaskarth fan fiction / Love Triangle

That Mouth and Those Lies
_____ A John O’Callaghan+ Alex Gaskarth fan fiction / Yet another love triangle

This Silence Isn’t Easy
_____ Alex Gaskarth fan fiction / I’m not even going to try to describe the mess that is this story

Trust Me I’m A Liar
_____ An Alex Gaskarth fan fiction / Eating disorder

Yesterday
_____ An Alex Gaskarth fan fiction / Sequel to “Trust Me I’m A Liar”

So Scared of Getting Older I’m Only Good At Being Young
_____ An Alex Gaskarth fan fiction / TV Show thing???


So, as you can see, I was clearly obsessed with Alex Gaskarth. And John O'Callaghan. And love triangles. But I'm still pretty in love with John O'Callaghan and love triangles. So.

I'd love to see you guys do this with your old stories! It's actually fun. Gives you a chance to look back and reminisce and reflect and stuff. I go back and read my old stories all the time tbh.
