Today in PuffCast, we finish up our discussion of “Teddy Lupin and the Forest Guard” by FernWithy. We revisit explosive topics such as Yellowstone and Susan Bones, reference both Star Trek and the Muppets at once, and there’s juuust a little bit of sports.  Tricia and OG are FANGIRLS, Scott has a visiting ghost and Sue is distracted by “The Talk.”  We do talk about the last chapters of Teddy Lupin, where we learn about the Charmer and what’s in that interesting ivy in the forest.  As we near the final chapter, our discussion becomes increasingly focused and incisive–and then Kelly joins us, and the tangents ride forth once more.

Then, Fernwithy joins us for an interview, once we overcome our technical difficulties.  Interesting discussion ensues, which includes further fangirling, forum promotion, and Oliversgal’s thoughts on the redemption of House Scrimgeour.

We encourage you to check out more of Fern’s stories “here.”  Tricia particularly recommends Shifts and Shades, and Teddy’s own story continues in alternating years.  Not to mention Albus Potter and the horde of Hermiones.

While your Poufwa hosts are busy recording their thoughts on Deathly Hallows, Part 2 at this very moment, PotterFicWeekly is pleased to look back and re-release our second Special Edition Podcast: The End of Potter Survival Guide.

First released on July 28, 2007 in response to the release of the final novel, Poufwa prepared an audio triage kit for our friends and families outside the fandom who didn’t realize that the story didn’t have to end. As you come across these lost souls on their way to grief counseling in the next few days, we’d like to encourage you to share Poufwa and the fandom with them, starting with this classic episode.

And whether you’ve never been, or a long lost Poufwanian, we’d like to invite everyone to the PotterFicWeekly forum located at potterficforum dot com. Long after we run out of fan fiction, the hosts and listeners of Poufwa will still be very much involved in each other’s lives, and we’re always looking to expand the family.

Back to the past.

Join Ryan, Jen, LadyChi, and INTRODUCING Spellcast’s Robert Standring as we offer a brief introduction to the world of Harry Potter fan fiction, including our best recommendations for those who may never have considered fan fiction, but are now desperate for more story. We encourage you to recommend this episode to fellow Harry Potter fans as a way to bring them into the fandom.

Happy listening!
