Many thanks go to Nic for the feature and for everyone who was kind enough to stop by and validate my work. Someday was the first story I ever published and it's great to know the piece is still as entertaining as the day Steve first asked to post it at 365 Tomorrows so many moons ago. All the best to everyone who's participated in this praise-fest. (It's really nice to have these once and a whi
