I think you're right; I think there are many forms of writing, not all published, not all popular, but who cares if you enjoy it? You write fan fic, which I will never write, and you write more blog entries than I do. I have spent over a decade thinking about and working on a single novel.
Who's to say what is right or wrong in time spent writing or creating? I enjoy living in the world of my book - I don't know that I want to write about anything else. I don't know that I want to share it. Right now, I simply don't have time for it, as I don't have time for blogging, and I think that's a more fair thing to say than to make an overall judgment on an activity. I hope given a different lot in life in a year, I will have time both to blog and work on the fiction.

Just some thoughts.
