Go play basketball! But, I don't want to play basketball. I want to play football.
That's like I said in the comments above. You can "dabble" in short stories and be a hobby writer and sell to small presses and it's all good and accepted.
Maybe I read too many agent/industry blogs. I read some the comments and wonder if some of those people would be happy to have their book published by a small press or even a printer. Just a couple of hundred copies, or maybe even a dozen or so.
