Don't scrap anything. If you have a different idea for the way your story might go, copy the file to another name. E.g., if your story is called "Cupcake.doc", make a variant called "Cupcake2.doc" and work on that one. Go back to "Cupcake.doc" if you decide that was acutally the better idea.
I often end up with five or six story files, only one of which I actually use.
My stories are at www.geocities.com/feedswomen if you want to read them.
