Good to hear. It's also an end of sorts, the result of a decision taken at another scene in the story. If you ever want to add your own, just go for it.

The same goes for anyone else. All you need is a platform we can link to, you can link from, and where comments can be left. A blog is ideal. Just continue the story in any way you choose, from any point, and leave a comment at that point so the person knows to add the link on to your scene. Easy.
