(By "old" I mean at least ten years old.)

I was reading some old journals and some stories on my fanfiction account yesterday, and I was struck by how good some of them were. I was fully expecting them all to be a huge cringe-fest, but some were...not that bad!
I actually think I was a better writer then than I am now! I think part of that has to do with being more inspired to write then. Now I mostly only write if I have to, or I'm writing cover letters, which isn't quite the same as writing fiction. 😛 I would like to get back into creative writing, though.
Has anyone else re-read their old writing recently? What'd you think of it?
