I think this is really dependent on the author's skill and how gracefully he stretches our suspension of disbelief. Swombat has this skill, so I would implore him to try it.

Wow, that's quite a compliment, thank you. I hope I can live up to it!

Even if you couldn't live up to it now (which is really in your head ;) you would incrementally but surely improve to the point you can, so do not feel pressured when you write those first pieces. I know you know this, but perhaps it's a good time to be reminded of it :-)
