Actually, no, I enjoy writing.  A lot.  Why else would I have 10+ fics
going at once?  

If you are writing because you enjoy it, then don't deprive those of us
who are reading it because we enjoy it.

And I think this comment and your following one were uncalled for. 

I read your fic, and I liked it.  But if you just wanna take your toys and
go home, then do it, and don't whine to us about it.

What, you don't like being told that someone likes your work?

What's with the attitude, WW?  Did I just hit a nerve or something?

Yes.  I write very short fics, and post them late at night.  It is not
unusual to have C&C on it when I wake up.  (Sometimes even two!)

But, as you realize below, your fic was longer.  And it's one of my pet
peeves that people don't give other people enough *time*.

My post was made rashly, and I often forget that not everyone has as
much time on their hands as I do, [...]

Exactly.
