Hello there, Laurie!
I like this. Although it might not necessarily be a story, per se, of your own, you still did a nice job of telling it.
The fact that this happened in a town close to you makes it more personal, and everybody likes a good mystery, even those revolving around a strange suicide. And although you've left us with more questions than answers, it plays on the reader's imaginations to try think of what might have happened to Julian (or James, or John *Laugh*) and his 'harem'.
Personally, I like ambiguous endings, and I've written a few of them myself.
Well done, my friend! The spelling and grammar were good, and I like the simple way you told this. It was kind of like sitting down around a campfire and listening to a ghost story, even if it wasn't scary.
Oh, and regarding what you said in your portfolio intro: NO, you're NOT a terrible writer, and NO, you should NOT quit!
