I hardly ever re-read my own work but I don't think I'd call it narcissistic at all to do so and enjoy it. For it to be narcissism I'm pretty sure you'd have to re-read your own work and never read anything written by anyone else. *g*

I'm compelled to write, writer's block is like physical pain, but I started writing fan fiction in large part to communicate, if you will, with other fans.

I've certainly written my fair share of stuff with little or no readership, particularly for fic challenges where I invite my mates to throw anything at my head they think I might know(Sapphire & Steel/Blake's 7, Steel/Avon anyone?)but where I've written multiple stories I've been part of a group of writers.

I run a small fic challenge. I get something new to read most weeks. :D
