Every few years I am struck by the urge to write fiction: I make up a bunch of weird little guys, give them problems, and then wander off.

@evacide I know, right? You get to about 2/3rds of the way and then "damn, you guys made a huge mess for yourselves and you want *me* to tie up all the loose ends?"

@monsieuricon I have written so many drafts and so few endings.

@evacide I tell myself this is because I treat it as software that is never really finished. :)

In my defense, I did write an ending, once. Problem is, I still have to trim almost 300K words of drivel to something readable and coherent. Haven't touched the manuscript in years.
