A little nervousity is only constructive in these matters. It gives you a nudge towards doing your best. I rarely re-read my submissions less than 5 times before finally publishing them, but I expect that to be a little exteme. I like to say that I have selective OCD =P

I expect you may already know, but I'm going to tell you anyway: Anyway, it seems to me like you are putting a lot of thought and effort into your story, so if people get on you for whatever flaws it may have, they are the nimrods, not you. However, you should expect users to point out flaws and fallacies for the purpose of letting you know so that you can fix it (constructive critisism). When reading a story you wrote on your own, you already know what it is and what it is about, but others may not see the connections or follow your logic, and a successful story should in my oppinion be writtin in a way so that most people can follow along and get the point(s). The trick for someone as proud as me is not taking critisism personally ^_^

I hope you are making good progress writing your story. I look forward to reading it =)
