I've probably written 10x more than I ever published. The benefits, to me, of the published vs unpublished works are about the same. I could argue that publishing things was net negative, when I'm feeling cynical. However, just because that writing was only of moderate value, and only to me, doesn't mean it wasn't worthwhile. It may well mean I was right not to publish anymore than I did. So I say to Drew (and others): Thanks for sharing what you have shared, and do not worry about whether someone else derived value from it. Judge those efforts by what they did for you.
