Any Time Someone Doesn't Like One On The First Run, I Hope They Will Give It Another Shot. At Least We'll Get Another Chance. But I Do Feel, In My Approach, I Am Not Really A Minimalist. I Don't Like To Leave Out Ideas That I Think Could Add Something To The Story. Sometimes, You Can't Quite Pick Up On All Of It In One Sitting. It's Not By Design. But Maybe It's A Side Effect Of My Approach.
