I believe I'm going to end the story here. I tried to continue it, but the way I started it just kind of messed up how I wanted the rest to be.
Let me explain. When I began
Shumway in 2022, it was merely a concept and had some editing to do. Originally, I meant for Gordon to escape the base and then wind up in LA, where he would wander around a bit until he would get a job at a Terry Faith outlet in a mall. However, that concept would be hard to do - How is Gordon supposed to hide? So, I gave up on that one. Then, I decided that he would live with Eric Tanner in Cocoa Beach, but the entire concept still needed some working on.
I really didn't want to end the story so abruptly, but here we are. I may add an epilogue to the story purely for closure, as I feel that the previously posted chapter was a decent end.
But it doesn't just end there. I'm still working on the
Shumway concept. I'm in the process of writing a series bible. I've already written a script draft for the pilot and have just finished the editing process. Although I am finished with it, I will not post it publicly, as I fear that someone would plagiarize it (not anybody on here...just other people browsing on the internet

). My dream is to have either Paul Fusco or Tom Patchett (or both, but I'm trying to be a little realistic here) read the script. In the meantime, though, I may add the premise of the series on here or something similar. But, for now, thank you to all of you who read the original fan-fiction story. I hope you enjoyed it
