Why isn't this complete?

A question that I always ask myself when I find and read through yet another unfinished story of mine. 

It's one of those maddening things about writing for me.

I have so many stories, but they don't have proper endings (some even have middles missing). And when I decide to read those stories in hopes of getting ideas to finish them... the only thing in my mind is "Why isn't this complete?"

So reading my incomplete stories= not helpful at all. Well that's not true. Sometimes reading those incomplete stories does put me in a creative mood for writing other stories. Sometimes.

Other times, I really wonder if they'll ever be finished so that I can upload them on ffnet.

And then there's Complicated Detour- which is finished and right there. And I still don't feel like uploading it. In this case my mind is going, "Why isn't this online?"

As for AtO chapter 14- I deleted a chunk of text (or rather I'm moving it to a future chapter) and the wordcount is in the 8200+ range. Not good but not bad. At least I'm not having problems with writing.

Out of curiosity- which Naruto character do you think plays a big role in chapter 14? I want to see if I've been too predictable.
