So... I ended up revisiting another story.

Cover used in For her, I'll do it.
After taking a look and rewriting one of my oldest stories a few days ago, I decided to see if the rest of my old stories could be improved in one way or the other. And yes, I noticed they could be better.

So I ended up rewriting "For her, I'll do it" which is a story I also wrote in 2001 and after looking at it now, well... let's just say it wasn't really that good. It is written in first person, which I don't like much, but back then I was experimenting and wanted to give it a fair try to see if I could do something with it. I discovered first person PoV is not my thing, and in fact, this fanfic is mostly responsible for my decision of dropping first person PoV for good; I find it limits my options a lot when I'm writing.

After rereading the story, I realized the ending was weak, and that it wasn't as strong as it could be, I also didn't offer an explanation on how the shock ending could be possible, so I was forced to add a second chapter to expand on the initial situation to make the ending have the required impact on the reader.

I'm not sure I was able to do what I wanted, but one thing is for sure, the story is much better now, and I feel satisfied with it.
