Great video love it

[@shasoreads]

Thank you! It makes me so happy.

When SK doesn't know how to end a book, he usually blows up the whole town or introduces some big thing that takes the story forward. That's why The Stand has an explosion in the middle part.

Spoiler alert:
Yep you're absolutely right about The Stand!
In On Writing book, SK exactly talks about what you said about The Stand and the explosion, . I didn't mention it in the video to avoid spoiling.
