Oh, wow, Mike. I wonder how many of us are affected by this glitch and don't even realize it. That's so odd, frustrating, and needs to be fixed.

This is interesting. I have stories that I have deleted from the past because I didn't like them anymore. But these are active stories and I clicked on them and all they said was "something went wrong". I even tried typing 'Vocal Media' and your username + the name of the Whitby story you've attached and other stories of yours about Whitby appear, but not that one. I am quite confused as to what's happening there. I hope you get this fixed soon :)
