End of the world Bob, Last Man on Earth vibes. I enjoyed this, Shaina. Well done.

This is promising. An apocalypse story set in a real place, where survival means survival.

Forget evading zombies, think about evading hunger and thirst.

I'm hooked.

I had pulled up Part 2 of this series first in my email and went, "Oh man, I need to go to Part 1 to see what she gave her character to survive." Creating what goes in an end-of-the-world-basket seems like such a satisfying piece to write. As well-equipped as Bob is, I imagine things are not going to go well for him. Looking forward to what's next.

This was superb, Shaina. Such depth of character and vivid imagery from so few words. The prose is really tight. 👌

Looking forward to Part 2 and where this goes.
