For this final episode of Time for the Fair, I did a live recording of the introduction and Story So Far with my friend, Heather James.  We have known each other for about 15 years through the Good Vibes Coffeehouse, a weekly open stage that meets every Thursday night at Mt. St. Louis Hall.  Heather has proven to be a very enthusiastic fan of the story sending me weekly emails with her responses to each episode.  I was pleased to have her record the last story so far in my living room, then read her the final chapters.  The musical interlude is My New Guitar, by Heather’s husband, classical guitarist Gerald Boy.  You can find his music on CDBaby and itunes.

Thanks to everybody who has contributed to this podcast and to everyone who has listened along.   I am considering posting the audiobook on podiobooks.com and on Bandcamp.  I may also self-publish as an ebook and paperback.  I will post any further news about the story on this website.

Now… It’s Time for the Fair…
