I'm in a similar boat to >>4.

Sometimes if it strikes my fancy I begin writing pieces of fiction. Then I let them sit several months (and sometimes years) and come back to them. Whenever I reread them I can only shake my head, but I learn something from the experience.

I have a small theory that it's easier to make superior short stories than long ones, because it's easy to throw away small things or completely redo them. Long stories have taken so much investment that the authors are reluctant to chuck them out.

Having said that, I have no intention of publishing a thing; it's just a diversion.
