Happens more often than I'd like.

Write them down somewhere.

Sometimes if you wanna get shit done, you're just gonna have to put your nose to the grindstone. The content you produce may not be the best, but at least it's content. It's better than nothing, and with something like writing, you can always go back and make it better later with subsequent drafts.
>try to write a redux of the first vampire-related story I've ever written (based off an RP I was partaking in) as a prequel to the story I'm planning, but mainly because it was terrible (if you manage to find it [which shouldn't really be too hard], good luck)
I would caution against this. Be very careful to not get stuck in the trap of constantly re-writing something to make it better. At some point you're going to have to recognize, "This is the best I can do right now. It's time to move on." And that can be difficult. I know from experience. It may or may not mean coming to terms with the fact that you might not be as awesome as you think you are.
