The relationship between a podficcer and author can be totally hands off, completely collaborative or anything in between. There are a lot of ways podficcers and authors can help each other, check out pod_aware on LJ or DW for more information.

Welcome to "Our Doc," the tale of the creation of our pod_together story, Unexpected Happily Ever Afters.

This wasn't written in a completely linear fashion; throughout the writing process, we'd respond to each other and add bits to previously written sections as thoughts occurred to us. We’ve done our best to clean it up for clarity, but we left some of the tangents and goofy things in anyway.

The gdoc version, which is color-coded by speaker, can be found at Our Doc. There have been some minor edits for flow and clarity between the gdoc version and the dw/lj version. In the dw/lj version, tangents, digressions, and parenthetical discussions are indicated by a + and small font.
