First let me thank all of you who took the time to comment on the removal of my story.
It confirmed that for most, the ending was unsatisfactory at best.
Given how many have asked me to reinstate it, I have decided to do a rewrite with a, hopefully, better ending. I hope to have it done in a couple of weeks.
It will still be a short story, not a book, and I doubt that there will be any sequel.
Again Cheers.
