Target completion date (an estimate which can be changed):January 31,2008
Short description (can be a paragraph copied from Wikipedia. If you write this yourself, please be aware that your summary will be in the PD. Please state who wrote the description): The House of the Seven Gables is a gloomy New England mansion, haunted from its foundation by fraudulent dealings, accusations of witchcraft, and sudden death. The current resident, the dignified but desperately poor Hepzibah Pyncheon, opens a shop in a side room to support her brother Clifford, who is about to leave prison after serving twenty-five years for murder. She refuses all assistance from her unpleasant wealthy cousin Judge Jaffrey Pyncheon. A distant relative, the pretty young Phoebe, turns up and quickly becomes invaluable, charming customers and rousing Clifford from depression. A delicate romance grows between Phoebe and the mysterious lodger Holgrave, who is writing a history of the Pyncheon family.
The House of the Seven Gables is set mainly in the mid-19th century, with glimpses into the history of the house, which was built in the late 17th century. The primary interest of this book is in the subtle and involved descriptions of character and motive.

I am convalescing at home after being in the Hospital for most of October, so I have quite a bit of time on my hands and should complete this way before the estimated completion date, if all is well!
Thanks

I'll send you a PM with the details on how to edit your Magic Window with the rest of the Chapter titles and your listen links as you get chapters done.
Shelagh,
I would be very grateful if you would PL my project. I was going to advertise after I posted my first chapter. Thank you. I'll PM you with the magic box info.
Look for my first chapter within two or three days, after I finish up some of my loose end noise cleans and a chapter for a collaboration.
I'm so excited I could pee myself>

Great to see you have 2 sections recorded! It may be helpful for shelagh if you also post in the thread with a note saying Chapter 01, ect is uploaded, then she'll likely get an email saying a new message has posted, and she'll know to check to see if you have a new chapter up and ready for proof listening. If you only update the listen link, which is good, too, she won't get the notice of activity in the thread.
I haven't uploaded any chapters yet , I was just playing with getting the individual chapter texts linked to the magic box ready for when I did upload them, which the preface will be uplaoded tomorrow .
I was just familiarizing myself with the program and I will link the upload and post the link in the thread as well.
