That's a very kind, respectful answer. I'm only a sample of one, but I feel you'd have to work hard to actually sound snobbish. Great writing! :)

> Great writing!

You have no idea how much this compliment means to me.

I have a bad habit of being long winded in the way I write and speak.

Part of it is learning English as a 2nd language (only sort of), and using it mainly during class speeches and debates.

I am glad my writing style isn't a road block to getting my point across. :)

Thank you.

That's quite amazing - you write like a native English speaker. I would not have imagined that English is your second language! Very, very impressive work and you should be quite proud of yourself.
