Hi Darrell,
This story is basically book length. You will have to read it as a solo project.
Here is the link with information on how to do that if you haven't before.
viewtopic.php?f=28&t=13513
The only other way is to divide it in 2 parts and read it at a good tempo (or use audacity to increase the tempo) so each file clocks in at 70 minutes or less. We have the exception of an occasional two part story in this collection, but never any with more than that.
Cheers,
-Amy

Hi Luke,
Your story is PL OK. I guess if it looks like a pig and it walks the pig, it doesn't mean you should eat it.

Thanks!
