Well, I read another one, Section 37, and tried to edit it to eliminate long silences. I think it may come from my stopping-and-starting technique, which needs work. I also am trying not to actually pause as long between chapters or topics. Anyway, here you go: The length of this recording is 29:44...

Opening silence must be between 0.5 and 1 second (I believe 1 1/2 would be too long). The general wisdom seems to be that silences between paragraphs shouldn't be more than 2 seconds, and even less within paragraphs. Fifty-four seconds is an awfully long time to wait for a story to start. Some list...

Re: [Memoir] Our Southern Highlanders by Horace Kephart-ag

I also added the 'The End' prior to my closing (you're right, the words ARE there) and also tightened up the closing of chapter and book - makes it seem more like one big announcement (which I agree is an i...
