In capping off our sixteen-episode After the End series, PotterFicWeekly is pleased to release our interview with Arabella, Zsenya and the people who helped to create this amazing story.

No bullet points this time. Listen and enjoy.

After you’re done, you’ll want to check out the Sugarquill’s new podcast, or should I say sqodcast. There’s no way Jennie’s not thinking of me when she pronounces Zsenya.

One last time, we’d like to thank Arabella, Zsenya, Rose K. Brown, and Maureen Knight for taking time out of their busy weekend to talk to Phil, Jules, Jen, and me. I’d like to thank Zsenya in particular for making this series more fun than it had any right to be.

Happy listening!
