Coping of a Former Human Removed (Deleted)

Today, I have removed the "A Deer Named John" companion piece "Coping of a Former Human" from my published stories list.

Why the title? Because this:

The very talented Mix-Up just dropped the new cover art for John on me and I am just so bubbly right now! I am such a mess from this I just forgot how to link pages in blogs and messages.
