My studio is my little log cabin that I had built at the bottom of my garden when we moved into our house 2 years ago. It is my sanctuary and also the place the good lady "B" banished all my books and computers to. In front of me, behind my pc is a large shelf full of books which helps to ...

Hi there. I notice that Chapter 9, Lecture IX ritual continued is still open. Could I claim it? It might take me a week or two to record it though as I'm a bit swamped at work. I've been away from narration and all my hobbies for the past couple of months due to real life getting in the way, meaning...

Life has dragged me away from Librivox and my other hobbies over recent months thanks to not being at home for long periods due to work!! Anyway, I'm hoping I can get back into this more regularly.
