I do this [i]all[/i] the time. It really has something to do with wanting to do some parts of your character, and then going "meh" at the rest. 

Though, I, sometimes, tend to regain interest later, and finish the character.

Word. Sometimes I take little breaks between writing a character in hopes that, each new times I sit down to write, it won't feel like a hassle and I'll have fresh ideas or be willingly to write out the CS in full. Of course, there are other character who are so fully born in my mind, that before I have start typing, I've got them fleshed out. Those are the best :rollin

I also tend to do this comparison crap between my private writing and my RPing. There are so many differences between the two, though both are equally fun. Of course, with the characters I privately write with, there is no pressure to create this long and detailed description of them. You can start off with bits and pieces and culminate into a character you truly like. With RP characters...there's usually some spoken or unspoken deadline that you want to get your character in. I mean, in many ways, private writing involves a lot less pressure (unless you're contracted and have deadlines) and so that comparison can really get to me and make me one lazy ass.
