Well, I suppose I've basically just not been around - as you know, I've been busy with my book. (The submission date has just been put off yet again, but I'm now a bit more organised than my co-authors, so I'm trying to crawl out of the bunker a little!) I suppose I'd echo what other people are saying here - I don't actually know any of the books you have mentioned, except the Green Knowe ones. I love those, and it is great to see the actual house they are based on, but there is nothing very controversial there - although I've met people who could take them or leave them, I've never met anyone who felt that they were bad books, or that they should have been written differently or were sending an irresponsible message. Whereas the whole Harry Potter fandom has grown up around, firstly, speculating about what might happen in the remaining books, and secondly, arguing about what did happen. And of course, as Snape fans, we are a minority in a Harry Potter fandom which now seems to have the author's blessing in disapproving of our hero! So I suppose that there is always more to discuss there!

But I don't think that you need worry about people not reading your LJ. I loved your Star Trek essays, and they seemed to get a lot of interesting comments - so I don't think that people only come here for Snape!
