Yes, I do, because if I didn't save it I'd wake up in the middle of the night convinced that it was the best thing I'd ever written, and I'd made a dreadful mistake deleting it.

As it is, I file it away carefully and will probably never look at it again Though I do make some available as an "extended edition".
