Well. I have just started the writing thing in the last few years. The stories I do, mainly small ones, are because I sometimes think, "I wonder why that happened?" And I wonder what if this little sentence was added. or missing. Etc. Sometimes it's "Where did that character come from?"
The drabbles and subjects that are put up make me think of these things. My two longest stories are set "ten years after" so I think I added some extra stuff for them. Short ones seem to be quicker because we all know the characters, and I just add a little extra bit sometimes. I think we all do this.
Me personally, I haven't read a lot of fan fiction long stuff. I prefer the short shorts. A quick in and out.
