This doesn't happen often, but the titles of your stories were close enough of a match, and in the tank at the same time, that when I promoted one and deleted the other, the system killed both of them. This happened, probably, because the indexing system gave them identical codes on this end. I saw the one as being let out, but then when I went back to edit the title, it was gone!
I also don't keep email once I reply, so I don't have your address.
Everyone else, keep in mind, if you make an error in the title, I'll fix that when I see it. If there's an error IN the text, I can fix that too ... so don't resubmit! Just make a post or an email ... or submit a story titled something like "Don't let 'my story' OUT!"
I'm sorry about this, really ... I think it's only happened once before!
