Have you wrote a SCP? if so have you ended up publishing it?

I’ve written… oh so many. I tried posting one but I didn’t do it right and said I’ll fix it later. After 2 years I probably should get on that anyways what about you all?

I sometimes just use SCP as a creative writing starting point to make a joke or riff on themes on social media. Other times, I use my familiarity with it to riff alongside other users. Example here.
That said, after reading a bunch on scp-wiki and playing Control, I can't get it all out of my head. I'm sure one of these days I could be bothered to write a real one.
I wrote a couple, but they never got approved. And that was back when they had less than 1000 of the damn things 😮‍💨
I had some ideas I jotted down but never really put anything together. Maybe someday...
Isn't there no governing body for this? Can't anyone just write and publish their own if they want?
- It’s heavily encouraged to have it reviewed by certain people or authors who have had published works. A page usually gets downvoted till it’s deleted if it’s not reviewed because of certain formatting rules and all that
  
  I mean just in general, as a book. Can't anyone just publish their own books and market them outside of that web site?
