I know what you mean about being afraid that things won't live up to prior performance. That seems to be the great Catch-22 about positive feedback in my life, at least. I love getting positive feedback. I live for it. But when I do ... there is this nagging worry. If I'm doing too well ... then does that mean that it's all downhill from here? But I can't freeze up and just not try, or else I've fulfilled my own fears. Or, at least, I shouldn't.
As for Silver Scales, I think it's an interesting setting. No, really! "Interesting" can seem like such a bland, dull word, overly used, but Silver Scales interests me. I want to find out more. And I think that even if it takes a more serious turn for a bit, without constant slapstick, you would still have me hooked. I care about the characters. It would take a whole lot of work on your part to change that. ;)
I believe in you! Of the LJs that I follow, there are two I look at with the most interest. The first would be gwendelkitty's (which rarely has anything for me to read), and the second would be yours. I look forward to whatever story snippet, slice of life, financial education blurb or whatever that you put out on a given day. You have a knack for the art of dialogue and engaging characters, and plots that make me care. Don't ever short-change yourself! =)
