OPEN [PLAYS] Greek Myths and Hero Tales, by Comstock - thw

[Inkell]

First Woman, in Niobe is PL OK, well done!

Thanks a lot, Alice! The MW has been updated

I have marked all three as PL OK, the shorter silences can be an optional change. This also actually means Niobe is now ready to edit so we should have another play completed soon!

I have marked all three as PL OK, the shorter silences can be an optional change.

concerning the silences, for drama roles I always use 2 seconds between quotes, as I figure this gives the editor enough fiddling space to copy and paste the bits. There is no hard and fast rule on the length of the silences as such.

Thanks for the PL ok, all of you

I could take a few more "numbered" voices, in the plays I have not yet participated in

10 Second Shepherd, in Midas and Apollo
20 Second Courtier, in Perseus and Medusa
24 First Argonaut, in Jason
46 First Seaman, in Arion

thanks

Thanks, Sonia! Yeah it can be fun getting into these different characters, glad you had a good time even if one of your characters is award-winningly stupid Also I realize I forgot to respond before to your comment about silences, to be honest the more editing I do the more I feel like how long the silences need to be is circumstantial, two seconds is probably fine in this case.

Anyway, there is another one each for wib66 and Winnifred then two for alanmapstone

First Argonaut in Jason and First Seaman in Arion are both PL OK!

Hello Inkell!
By careful listing I found, I could do without clashing:

Pelias, in Jason
Silenus, in Midas and Bacchus
Epimetheus, in Pandora

Right? If so, I claim the roles.

All the best (and still in awe, because this project is so big and wonderful) -

You are correct, Alice, all of those should be fine with no clashing so I have put you in for them

All the best to you too, thank you for your continued help and interest in this project

They certainly are stupid, aren't they?

Nicely done. Just one line needs correcting: at 0:19, you’ve pronounced Perseus the traditional way, rather than the way the pronunciation guide for this book requires (Pur-Soos). And at 0:21/22, there’s a bit of a click. You might want to redo that whole sentence when you fix “Perseus” so as to remove the click.

Thanks,

[Kitty]

oops, I didn't even realize there was a pronunciation guide now I'm surprised I didn't make more errors.

here's the redo of that line, hope it's better now:
