Re: [Solo/Dark Romanticism]Chalk Face by Waldo Frank -jo

Thank you for the heads up but please don't worry about me or this project. I appreciate the quick turn around but, honestly, it's not like I'm just starting out. Like you, I do try to PL in a timely fashion because I still remember what it was like two years ago when I started doing this stuff. Ba...

Re: [GROUP] The Footpath Way: An Anthology for Walkers - lt

Lynnet and Winnifred, thanks for the advice. I have downloaded Audacity now and started to experiment with it. I have to say, it feels like ditching Word to go back to the old Unix editors I started with in the 1980s, ed and vi. I'll follow your advice about getting the settings right and give it a...

Re: [Solo/Dark Romanticism]Chalk Face by Waldo Frank -jo

Section 10, 5:34, is possibly every bit as clueless as its reader but maybe there's a bit of character development here - I mean it must have a reason for being! Right? https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/chalkface_10_frank_128kb.mp3 EDIT: Yeah, I think for sure Part 1 - i is all about c...

Never heard of Audacity before. Will look into it. Thanks. Patrick If you do download Audacity, check out this post for information (with screenshots) on how to get your settings right to meet Librivox technical standards. It's written for a slightly earlier version of Audacity, but should still be...

Re: Recording Startup Difficulty

I know my microphone doesn't start recording immediately when I press "record", it has a small delay, maybe one second. Is this what you're describing here, too? So I press record and wait for a couple of seconds before I start talking. I've tried to fix it because it's annoying, but I ha...

Sections 7, 8, and 9 are all PL OK.

He seems to be dropping hints here and there of his involvement in the murder ("I knew the room."... "Was I discovering, indeed? or was I appraising?")

Re: [GRP/WRITING] The Writing of Fiction by Edith Wharton - tg

I seem to be holding up the works here. I've recorded my section (3), but still need to edit it. It's currently about 50 minutes long (that will come down a bit once I edit out repeats).

I hope to finish and upload tomorrow or Sunday.
