If you develop a reputation for not finishing your stories, men who value closure are going to be reluctant to read them. Consider that you have already abandoned Myou've Gotta be Kidding Me.

Hm, now that you mention it, I think abandoning Myou've Gotta be Kidding Me was quite a good idea.

I'm curious; would you care to expand on your reasoning here?

To be blunt but vague, I thought it was bad, and I think your S.I. novel is fun to read and probably stretches your writing muscles more.

It's probably good to not trapped by the themes and plot arcs of the past if it turns out they're not so hot.
