Hello and welcome to Story Time for Grownups.

I'm Faith Moore, and this season we're reading David Copperfield by Charles Dickens.

Each episode I'll read a few chapters from the book,

pausing from time to time to give brief explanations, so it's easier to follow along.

It's like an audiobook with built-in notes.

So brew a pot of tea, find a cozy chair, and settle in. It's story time. Hello, welcome back.

This is another pre-recorded episode.

It's the last one, the second and the last pre-recorded episode.

I will be back on Monday.

And I miss you. I miss you guys. I miss

having your letters to respond to. I miss reading these chapters and then hearing from you.

It's not nearly as fun to just be talking into the void by myself. I really want to know.

I'm dying to know what you guys think of these chapters.

So I'm very glad that I'm going to be back on Monday. And it serves as just a reminder if I needed

one of how important you all are to this show. This show is nothing without you. It's the letters

that you send and the reactions that you have and the way that I

get to interact with those that make this show what it is. So thank you. Thank you for listening

and being a part of story time for grownups. I could not do this show without you. But for now,

I am without you and so I'm going to soldier on. I'm going to limp along until we can be

back together again. So before I do that, just all the usual reminders, please make sure

you're subscribed, tap the five stars if you're enjoying the show, leave a positive review if you're

enjoying the show and your podcast player, and spread the word. Tell everyone about this show
