Any guidance on pronouncing Chaik? I was going with a long "a" as in chain.

I think I would go with that; rhymes with Jay, and sounds like the sound those noisy birds make.

Which MC should we use for uploading?

Oops! It's me. Apparently I forgot to add my name to the upload instructions.

Here are chapters eight and nine. This was a fun book to work on.

PL notes for Chapter 8:

6:59 - Long pause of around 5 seconds

7:04 - Heard "End of Chapter 8", should be just "Chapter 8"

PL notes for Chapter 9:

(Optional edit) 06:12 - "scary, starey eyes" I heard "scary, starry eyes"

Oh, this is my mistake. "End of Chapter 8" is actually correct, and I have now made that correction in the instructions. And, I don't find any long 5-second gap.

11:27 - Heard "End of Chapter 9", should be just "Chapter 9"

Again, the outro is fine. Sorry about that.
And, the slight variation from the text is an optional correction under "standard PL" guidelines since it doesn't substantially alter the meaning or sound out of place. (I do like "scary, starey" better though).

Thanks! That makes Chapter 8 PL OK!

My apologies for any confusion

I agree - I like the assonance.
