What is it that you’re trying to achieve by deleting your account?
If you want to stop anyone else, or AI scraping, from using your stories, then I would think that you’d want to erase them.
If you just want to be private or anonymous, then as long as there is no identifying information, you should be ok just abandoning them.
Would it be ok if your stories got archived somewhere and someone got to read them, say in ten years, but there’s no information as to author or location? Or would it be better for your privacy/anonymity if they weren’t available ever again to anyone?
I guess the answer depends on what you want the outcome to be.
