I just read your story. I am a moderator for the Inkwell community and you will receive the official response right after I write this one. Ordinarily, I don't come 'out of the shadows' and comment as myself, but in this case I think it's necessary.
Your writing is wonderful. Unfortunately, in posting this story you have not observed any of the community rules. That's Ok. You probably didn't acquaint yourself with them. But since your post doesn't follow our rules, it isn't eligible for Inkwell curation.
Too bad. I love this piece. Clever, bright, engrossing. Of course you have to tell your readers what happens next. This is not appropriate for the Inkwell though. We do not accept chapters. We do not accept serials. One way around that rule is to write a chapter that can stand by itself. I have done this myself in books that I have written. It's not very hard to provide a complete arc inside one chapter, and at the same time suggest more will follow. Just don't say it's a chapter.
I'm now going to post the official Inkwell welcome, which will apprise you of rules and refer you to a more thorough review of Inkwell culture.
I enjoy your writing very much. Hope to read more from you.
