Note: I have implemented a rule to not resubmit a story more than once, and only if I have identified the holes in the story. Otherwise, write new.
You and I have the same rule 😉
So far no resubs, but there are a couple I could as I am fairly certain I know the issues as they were written originally when I was a more naive writer. That being said, I'm still unlikely to as the effort in re-doing those long ago ones is likely as much as doing something completely fresh at this point

@gideonpsmith I agree on evaluating the effort to fix a story. I have two that are within the last 2 years I determined are worth the effort to fix. If not for WotF, to submit to other markets. All my other stories I consider as done as they will be and not worth the effort.
