That didn't go too badly.
In retrospect I probably should have pushed through to the end of the story and not worried about overtime, rather than stop with about a page-and-a-half to go. There are a bunch of people I now have to email a copy, because it's no longer up on the Friends of the Merril site. On the bright side, there are a bunch of people who want to read the ending.
The enthusiastic characters are much easier to read than the quiet ones. Their dialogue flows better.
People didn't laugh at most of the jokes. I'm hoping they just didn't notice they were jokes.
My parents came.
Also, Kari's songs continue to be funny, and the story she read from was excellent.
