It was a tragic and yet a noble escape by Lindy, putting a dent in Pastor Robs control and showing Stimp a view of how strong the evil was. Can he survive his role? Bring it on!

"He opened his eyes and watched as Phil fell to his knees, shards of glass raining down like glittering snow. Tiny red circles appeared on his face and neck, grew, then started to drip into his eyes. He closed them and looked up, arms outstretched to heaven. Dark blood trailed out of the side of his mouth."

That scene is so incredibly vivid, I can picture it so clearly. Honestly, almost every single scene in this piece stands out in a cinematic way to me, and I am *dying* to read the final episode now.

I am not too well read when it comes to stories in this sort of lineage, but I am very surprised by where this one has gone, and delighted with the direction. I am probably getting ahead of myself since there is still an episode to go, but after sharing that, would you consider writing a bit about the roots of this story and the journey that it has taken to come to this place and in this form? I want to know everything there is to know about Stimp! Did the character come to you so fully fleshed out as he appears to us here? Have there been iterations? Is there more to his story that may not have had a place here in this work?

Not hunting for answers right now, but I just wanted to put the idea in your head, and let you know that Stimp is very much the kind of character that leaps from page to imagination. I honestly can't wait for the conclusion.

I would love to write about Stimp. I may do a followup where I do just that. There’s so much to say about him. He surprised me. I had an idea about who he was when he first entered my brain, and he’s much different than I thought he would be. Thanks for reading this far along! It literally thrills me that you would take the time to comment!
