I do appreciate it. I really do. There are far too many close-minded people in this world who will go, "Oh there's that darned Tyber again, coming to tell us how to write. Quickly, hide your stories! Reject everything he says!"

I've had one woman on this site outright insult me for my positive feedback of a legitimately good story, claiming I was being "sarcastic". Ugh, sometimes people can be so annoying, you know?

It's always a reward when I find someone who is mature (and brave) enough to listen to and consider what I have to say; it's all I can hope for. Knowing that a bit of my knowledge has rubbed off on someone is as satisfying as gaining a new slice of knowledge for myself :)

So you're a sculptor too, now? I had a feeling that was the case! I took a peek at the Wikipedia page for the creature that influenced you, it seemed pretty nifty. Perhaps I shall check out your deviantart page. Just be warned, I'm a terrible art critic ;)
