"The Ample Lake Burster - Chapter 20" - Inflation/Popping
Added 2024-05-17 17:12:28 +0000 UTCHere's the 20th chapter of my serialized inflation novel, "The Ample Lake Burster". The next chapter is the final one (unless I decide it needs a little epilogue; I haven't quite settled on that yet)
A strange flash above Camp Ample Lake attracts the attention of Sheriff Sutton.

Yep. I knew you wouldn't introduce bunch of named characters that would never show up again. Hoping for a big hyena bursting somehow next chapter.

I was under the impression that the Burster was a vengeful spirit, like what Webb thought. Maybe that's not the case. Maybe... The Ample Lake Burster... Is Deputy Marsh?
