Welcome to the place where the story never ends!

Episode 154: Be Careful… What Fanfiction You Write

Here is our fifth(!) marathon episode of, “Be Careful” by Anne B. Walsh.

While Sue is finally well again, Kat has been spinning out as she enters the last stint of life as she knows it in Undergraduate school. She’s hilarious when she’s not on sleep, ladies and gentlemen, so we decided to give you a double-episode of it!

This episode was recorded almost a year ago, so we’re talking about Christmas and Finals and presents. We hope you’ve enjoyed the coverage of Be Careful (and we reiterate that if you haven’t, don’t worry, we’re starting Shifts by FernWithy in two weeks) – we’ve certainly enjoyed covering it, even though it took up three long months. We will also be releasing an author interview with Anne Walsh herself in the next couple weeks.

We remind you that Sue’s email address has changed to Sue@Poufwa.com.

If you enjoy the antics of PFW, you might want to check out our new podcast PointOfViewWeekly. We remind you that Point of View Weekly is now recorded 8:30 EST and is available on iTunes! We’d love to have you stop by and join in the fun.

Sue literally killed Kat making her edit these, but she still wishes you all enjoy it, show notes or not – she didn’t write any because she’s dead (which is code for, instead of making show notes, the editor decided watching reruns of Cold Case was more important).

Episode 153: She shells, squishy moments, and the idiot ball of doom

Here is our fourth marathon episode of, “Be Careful” by Anne B. Walsh. It’s been a long journey, but we refuse to stop this ride! Through the deep discussion of plot holes of canon and the much-debated trace, we here at Poufwa are plowing through the next set of chapters with startling on-topic discussion. Moony is singing songs, Kat is talking about math and computer science, Scott’s doing impressions, and Sue is driving this podcast while still sick. Kudos to Sue!

Episode 152: Kat’s high, Baby Dementors, and Sam Gamgee’s got Voldemort

Here is our third marathon episode of, “Be Careful” by Anne B. Walsh. For the first half of this episode, Sue apparently has the cold that would not end and Kat’s got a fever of 101.8 and is operating on no sleep because it’s midterms, but we are determined to truck through the chapters regardless! During the second half we add Scott, Sue is still sick, and we all fear Scarlett’s brain. We still express our love for Dragon Charlie and are very concerned about what’s underneath Draco’s robes.
