Default it just keeps cranking

I have a 1998 a6 with 135,000 miles. I drive it once a month or less. I leave the key in the ignition because it is very sticky, it must be manually backed off after ignition. It no longer starts. It just keeps cranking. It doesn't sound like there is any combustion happening. Thank you for any help.

Since your ignition switch seems broken, have it checked.
