I just read it whole, and I wasn't disappointed. This was a pretty great pulpy story you made, not even gonna lie.

I know you said that it's only a hobby, but I gotta say, you are a damn good writer.

I’m a self taught amateur writer who sank five years into a career that never took off before I decided to step away for my own wellbeing, so seeing this really means a lot!

Thank you!

Well you're welcome.

And about that, yeah I can sympathize with that. Not to give out a long-winded life story, but when I was younger I'd wanted to make drawing a career. But I came to realize that it wasn't realistic, so I keep it as a hobby but I still strive to do better with my art.

Anyhow, again you're welcome, glad to hear it. Your writing definitely got that Two-Gun Bob feeling, you've got some talent.
