Thank you!
You know, there is that dynamic, and at first it kind of bugged me, but it does less and less. It's just part of the nature of things a little here, and I do actually think that if we are persistent in good content, we will do well over time--especially because we are all relatively new to the platform, and therefore kind of on the "ground floor" of the whole thing.
I appreciate your very kind words and encouragement, however :). Of course we want to see our best content rewarded! But in the end, it really is enjoyable just to get to share and have people appreciate our work--and even to make something while building a following is still just so novel to me! Xx, Kay
