It seems like you get mercy but you have no right to be insulted already for the fact that you have one of the most successful series here or you wouldn't have twenty books released. I think I don't have to say anything about how evaluation should be relative.
My goal back then was to create a series, up to 25 books, in fact. 20 books later, I realized I just want to write stories, though no one reads it. Or they can't go past the few first books and chapters.
