Thank you for you kind comments. I do apologize for the slight typos for I accidentally posted the draft copy instead of the final corrected version. There were also a few other minor typos as well. Keep in mind though I am not a professional writer or editor and neither is anyone who writes on this forum. I don’t think I have read one story yet that hasn’t contained a few errors in it--especially stories that are quite lengthy like this one was. I would hope most readers would come to understand that--especially given the sometimes long delays by the administrator of the forum in posting the revisions we make once our stories have been published.

As to your suggestions regarding the content of the story, keep in mind you can’t make every reader 100% happy. If for instance I gave Andrew’s father a name in my opinion it would take away from the crux of the story itself. The teenager is supposed to be having an affair with his best friend’s father. If you gave the father a name for instance, then it would diminish the story line of that very fact. Consequently in my view the father would come off more or less a just another guy having an affair with the teenager rather than the father of his best friend.

But in any event your certainly entitled to rate the story the way you see it and I encourage all readers to do just that. I do appreciate your feedback.

Thanks,

Jeff
