Hi guys.  Here it is    Enjoy

I set up an iCloud account to access this, Steve, but then I got a message saying the material was unavailable. FYI.

[stevie]

Ah sorry   Not sure why it put that link up   I save it to Notes on my phone   I’ll try again







[stevie]

I thought that was wonderful, Steve! Such a touching ending. Thanks so much for sharing it. That's the first piece of fan fiction I've read.

This part cracked me up: "You've been booted out." "Of the band? Or the country?" "Both."  It sounds so . . .  Beatle-y.

[stevie]

Thank you!  As I said it’s been in my head since 2010 but I’ve been busy writing ‘proper’ stuff lol

Did you play the music as you read it? Just curious to see how they goes. I wanted it to have a real Beatle feel hence the songs in the background.  The last song and scene especially - it has no dialogue to give it more oomph - I think the song fits so well

Yeah the funny dialogue I was inspired by Help and what I felt the boys would say. Thank you again

No, the playlist was not hyperlinked in the file I downloaded, and I wasn't sure how to access it. When I get time, I'll go back and create a list from the titles you mentioned, and then reread it while those play. Right now I'm in a bit of a work crunch and am pressed for time.

[stevie]

Oh cool    Yeah I don’t think I can link the playlist in the pdf itself so that’s why I wrote the info on the title page. It shouldn’t take too long for anyone with Spotify to create the list I guess    Thank you again, Normandie


I added the playlist to the post with the script now

Sweet story Stevie. 

I tried the playlist and it does make it more evocative.

[stevie]

Hey cheers Moog.  Yeah I tried to match up Rain with the pool scene and also when Peter Fonda says the line that influenced She Said I tried to sync it at that time. I was being a bit pedantic on it but it sorta matched as I read it through lol.  I had an Elvis song in there for the visit to him but it went for too long and buggered up the sync for later

I deliberately went for the final scene to have no dialogue as it makes feel more personal. And TNK fit perfectly.

Thank you again for the read. This one was from the heart for all of us Beatle people
