This is so true and I think folks sometimes forget that it is a hobby for many authors, rather than a stepping stone for becoming a pro writer.
I wouldn't say I get angsty over an abandoned WiP, but there are a couple that touched me so much because of the quality of the writing, the charactersation and the plot, that I am left with a profound feeling of disappointment whenever I think of them. I would love closure with a synopsis, but we often don't get what we want do we?
As for reading WiPs, there are 3 I do follow, all original m/m fics.
