Shout out and thanks to my $10 Patrons, whose support helps me bring you daily tales of groan-inducing terror. Bruce, Badger, Kathy & Warren.

Interested to see where this is headed. If puns return tomorrow (I’m looking forward to your wonderful puns), when (if ever) will this storyline continue?

This storyline has another 3-4 weeks. I think some of the daily tales would… Lose something(?) if they had a pun.
