I know the perfectionist compulsion well, Jacob. It's a major reason why LTDI isn't progressing faster than it is, and it's the reason why TDI-G&S took as long as it did and is as thorough as it is. But that's another advantage of writing your stories in advance--you can be as "anal" as you please, and no one will be the wiser.

As for the prospect of people losing interest in your stories, that's a danger we all face. Whether I would read your stories would depend on their nature and on what they're about. In other words, I would hold you to the same standards as I would anyone else. And I do give the younger writers a chance--I've read some of Reddy's stories, and I've read several of Crystal's stories.
