I seem to have generated considerable interest and left too many loose, unconnected threads for everyone's liking. As a result I am now considering expanding the story into a full length version. HOWEVER it will not be posted any time soon as I am just now starting to flesh out a plot. Should anyone wish to assist in this endeavor as a Beta, I would welcome the assistance.
I emphasize that it may be several months before I can start posting - it depends on how quickly the writing proceeds.
