It is pretty sad. 😟) Thanks for the vote of confidence. I think shared tragedy is what defines us as human, and I was hoping my story might give comfort to others who faced the same terrible night. <br /><br />And I agree with you on the Idiot's Guide. I think I'll replace that story with another in the next edition of the book, perhaps with another sci-fi story to go with The Last Star...<br /><br />Thank you for reading, reviewing, AND sharing. 🤗<br /><br />The journey is the reward.
