Prentice Mulford was also instrumental in the founding of the popular philosophy, New Thought, along with other notable writers including Ralph Waldo Emerson. Mulford's book, Thoughts are Things, served as a guide to this new belief system and is still popular today. (Introduction by Wikipedia)
Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): Standard
IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project will be opened up to a group project as soon as a Book Coordinator can be found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to have it re-instated).
The reader will record the following at the beginning and end of each file:
No more than 0.5 to 1 second of silence at the beginning of the recording!
Start of recording (Intro)
"Chapter [number] of [Thoughts are Things]. - This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information, or to volunteer, please visit: librivox DOT org"
If you wish, say: "Recording by [your name]"
Say: "[Book title], by [Prentice Mulford]. [Chapter]"
For the second and all subsequent sections, you may optionally use the shortened form of this intro disclaimer:
"Chapter [number] of [Thoughts are Things] by [Prentice Mulford]. This LibriVox recording is in the Public Domain.
If you wish, say: "Recording by [your name]"
Only if applicable, say: "[Chapter title]"
End of recording
At the end of the section, say:
“End of [Chapter]"
If you wish, say: "Recording by [your name], [city, your blog, podcast, web address]"
At the end of the book, say (in addition): "End of [Thoughts are Things], by [Prentice Mulford]."
There should be 5 seconds silence at the end of the recording, or 10 seconds for files longer than 30 minutes.

Rev. James Acker was specified as the initial DPL. He is a friend, and still willing to help me. I should have mentioned this earlier-- thank you so much for asking! I will be uploading chapters shortly.
