Thank you! It was well worth a few hours on a Sunday. Quite an enjoyable "tail".
My apologies to all. I submitted my unedited version. Very clumsy and embarrassing.
Great story, original and very imaginative. I'm glad you added the 'Oops' comment, though; it explains the meltdown in names, etc at about Ch 17-18, as well as some confusing dialogue interchanges that could have easily been sorted out by adding some 'he said, she said' phrasing.
Overall, a good read, thanks for all the hard work; you show a very good insight into human emotions as they apply to situations detailed in the story. It leads me to wonder how much of 'Roscoe's Tale' might have been autobiographical!
Note, in Chapter 23 Roscoe was named Oscar for the entire chapter. There were a few other mixups, but a really fun to read story none the less.
