I'm not exactly sure if this is the same thing, but a big reason why I create my Paper Mario "sprites" is that I honestly want to use them in a bigger project. Sure, I dabbled with pixels before, but I ended up stopping because it's not worth the effort to create sprites that I probably wouldn't use myself.
Also, the idea of just sticking to one thing without branching out is a big point. Even though I'm currently focusing on the Mario world for my project, I actually relish the idea of moving onto other game worlds when I get the chance. In fact, what's honestly stopping me from tackling my own ideas? While I might need a bit of a bigger team and support before I begin significant groundwork on new series, I don't see why I can't include completely original characters (not just a Bob-omb with a cool accessory or something like that) in my fan work as "cameos" and then migrate them back into their intended projects.
