I am just a fan too, but I think its important for us to tell our favorite writers that when we get your book, even if it is 4 or even 10 years late (which is a matter of perspective anyway :p), we are happy with it because its obvious that you gave that book your all (even if it made you crazy). I am not exactly a patient sort of person, but waiting for a GOOD book is not just bearable, but satisfying.
As for the continuity issues - bah, if you have to nitpick about someone's age in a certain year, or the color of a horse, or equally idiotic things; then you don't deserve to read for fun. I feel sorry for the people who can't just *enjoy* something.
Please don't fret too much - for every jackass who nitpicks or badmouths, there are many MANY others who feel the opposite.
Ah, what a ramble. *goes back to lurking and cheering from the sidelines*
