***** Part 2 *****
Chapter Notes
     This part was a lot of fun to make, and also a lot of trouble, as
     Audacity kept losing bits of my files. But I conquered, with the
     invaluable help of Anna_unfolding and the encouragements of Were_duck
     and Isweedan, as well as the support of my LJ, DW and Twitter
     friends. I chose to end this part sooner than I'd originally planned,
     because making it longer would have required me to split the files
     anyway. Cover still by the amazing Crazybutsound.
     I want to thank everybody who listened to Part 1 and expressed their
     enthusiasm and gave feedback. It's been truly amazing. I hope that
     Part 2 will live up to your expectations! You're certainly in for a
     lot of porn *g*

***** Part 3 *****
Chapter Notes
     This part puts us nicely over the halfway mark! 9.5 hours and and 90k
     down... 50k to go! One of the reasons it took so long is that I was
     scared of the emotional scenes I knew were coming, and put off
     recording them for a while. When I finally sat down and recorded, it
     was a lot of fun to stretch myself, though. This is probably the most
     emotional performance I've given in podfic so far, and I really hope
     it works for you.
     Thanks go to Anna_unfolding and Redoliphaunt for beta and audiencing!
     The always-amazing cover continues to be by the always-amazing
     Crazybutsound.
     I'm looking forward to recording a lot of moments in Part 4, I have
     about 45 minutes recorded already. RL deadlines are also looming,
     though, so I can make no promises... Other than that I will do my
     very best to get it to you asap!

***** Part 4 *****
Chapter Notes
     There are 2 minutes of notes at the end of this part, but here are my
     more detailed thank yous and thoughts.
     First, I seriously feel awful for how long this took. I can't believe
     it's been NINE MONTHS since the last part. Not going to lie, I'm
     super scared that everyone will have forgotten about this by now...
     On the other hand, I'm also very proud of this part. There are so
     many incredible scenes in this one, it's pretty much packed FULL of
     emotion from beginning to end. I think it's the first time I was
     actually tearing up reading a scene - I feel like it's super obvious,
     so I'll be interested to see if you find it. With this part, we're
     123.283 words in, short of 13 hours of total podfic, and 87% of the
     way there.
     Thanks to Waxjism for giving permission, to Paraka for hosting, to
     Crazybutsound for the cover, and to Anna_unfolding for an outstanding
     beta. Her notes are so amazing, guys, and the best piece of feedback
     you might get on your podfic, before you even post it. This was
     actually the first time we disagreed on a character and went back and
     forth, and it was so interesting to have to justify my choices. And
     as always, thank you to everyone who's been following this and
     encouraging me and cheerleading, and to all the listeners who are
     still listening to this. Part 5 is coming soon, I swear. There's only
     6k left to record! /o\

Chapter Notes
     So... Hi again? >.>
     In the notes to the previous part, which I posted in
     *cough*2013*cough*, I said I seriously feel awful for how long this
     took. I can't believe it's been NINE MONTHS since the last part. So
     needless to say, I feel ~~something that it took literal YEARS to
     finish this last part. But now it is, and it's time to let it go!
     I'll probably post a masterfile of the whole story in one at some
     stage, if that's something you're interested in. I do want to go back
     into the previous parts and re-edit some things though, so..... Maybe
     don't hold your breath, we know how these things go! >.>
     The end of the story itself is 1:48:00, and after that you'll find
     short author's notes, as well as about 15 minutes of extended notes
     with extended thanks and bloopers. But I still have to thank Waxjism
     for giving permission, my main beta Anna_unfolding, Crazybutsound for
     the cover, and everyone who's stuck with me and supported me through
     the years. This is all for you guys. <3 <3 <3
     I really hope you enjoy this final bit of Frank and Gerard's summer.
     Please let me know if you do!
