I'd keep writing, I think. I have a small group of friends I share my stories with, and they love to read them, and that's all that matters to me, honestly. I've been published a few times but I haven't sent anything out since this fall, because it honestly doesn't matter to me. If someone somewhere reads it, even if I have to tie them up and shove the computer in their face to do so, I'm still happy.
Besides, it gets rather noisy in my head when I haven't written for a while. I tell you, subletting the other 95% of your brain? Bad idea.
