So sick of authors just dropping a story.  I know I should be grateful for them writing but it feels ingenuous to not take responsibility for your own creation.  Delete it if you aren’t going to finish it.  Off the soapbox.

1) They can’t delete posts more than 5 minutes old

 2) Sometimes they drop off the site due to, ya know, life

3) You always have the option of writing your own story and publishing it here - but I’m not certain it wouldn’t be riddled with errors as you seemingly can’t tell the difference between ingenious and disingenuous.

He did say it was going to be four parts and it is. He also said when each part would appear and he kept to his timetable. Finally, he said he’d do another story if people liked this one, so I assume we have to look for that and bring it forward.  I don’t know that many of us write this well or we’d have more to read. There are times I get lost in the articles and then there are times I have to go out and play, but I love the guys who can channel their energy or remember enough of their dates to get their thoughts out onto the page.

As for the author, you can follow him to read what’s happened since writing this as he’s made a lot of comments with what happened when someone asked a question and it sounds like he’s done A LOT that he didn’t plan to do - but all fun. Maybe he’ll reply here.

The poster said there would be 3-4 chapters. He gave us 4. Nothing at the end of the last posted chapter says to be continued. He finished his story. What are you complaining about?
