while I can speak to writing Christian fiction, I have definitely felt like burning my stories some days.

'And all men kill the thing they love...'

Anyway, I guess its important not to take it quite that seriously, or value writings more than they deserve.

That's hard one to reply to; I have things in mind I could say but they might be unscriptural. ^^;

I burned a lot of my drawings in the past, but I regret that a little now. The ones I kept help remind me that I might someday look back to today thinking "how stupid I was back then"...

And I think there can still be value in keeping an elaboration of a mistaken idea, if only to help clarify what was mistaken about it.

How about just adding a disclaimer of some sort?

It certainly is hard to understand if your beliefs about God are different. I'm keeping copies of all the stories, just taking them down from the internet. I did add a disclaimer, but I still didn't feel comfortable about it. Thanks anyway.
