I'd actually caution against contacting writers unless they specifically mention this is the case. It's already very depressing and discouraging to receive requests (at best, or demands at worst) for fics they've either moved on from or feel guilty for not finishing.

I'm not saying never do it, just tread carefully. It has all the potential to backfire.

That's why I suggested an offer to beta. It's pretty easy to reject an offer to beta, especially if that writer has a history of not using them anyway.

It's a very different request than a random stranger asking "please let me read your unfinished fic privately even though no one else gets to" which most writers would rightly say no to, and then feel annoyed for being hassled.

Re: OP

There's still somewhat of an assumption that the author still considers that works ongoing, or that they still plan on working on it in some way. If, as in the case OP's objecting to, an author has clearly moved onto something else I still find it a little presumptuous to bring up an old fic in ANY capacity if the author hasn't mentioned that it's still something they consider a WIP.
