That was my understanding as well and I have to say it would be very uncomforatble to be left hanging, unfulfilled and unresolved. I read the first two chapters with enjoyment and now, of course, I want more, more, MORE. Sharon, might I respectfully suggest that splinters (ie permanently unfinished stories) might in truth become painful and irritating, nay festering, to the expectant and hopeful reader who gets sucked into the story line and wants to know what happened to the characters they have bonded with. Perhaps you ought to rethink that part of the concept. I do not mind snippets of works in progress because I know that eventually I will have the complete story but unresolved teasers, not so much fun.
Left hanging...
