This looks like a really interesting premise for a story. I'll be interested to see how this turns out.
ReplyDeleteThis is really creative. I would have never though to make my setting in Egypt. I can't wait to read this short story.
ReplyDeleteExotic setting, wonderful ideas, and great writing should make this an excellent story
