Hump the Stump 2: Stumpy's Revenge

I have a new flash fiction piece up on Bryon Quertermous's Flash Pan Alley, and yes, it's a Stumpy story. Stumpy's Revenge is the Stump's second adventure after he killed off his wife in the first story using his...well, just read it to find out. For those of you who aren't familiar with what is probably my favorite creation, Stumpy is a man with no arms and no legs and no conscience. He also hates bad poetry, especially his dead wife's bad poetry. The Stump is based on a real person whose "assests" were the basis of a really horrible poem. However, he does have all of his limbs, as far as I know (I've never met the poor bastard).

So, enjoy my first sequel and let me know what you think. Maybe Stumpy will return for a third outing.

Go Stumpy, go. Or is that being cruel?

Why's that cruel? Stumpy can take care of himself.
