Hello rapunzelina! I think this may be the weekend when we finally wrap this up! Brenda is back in action, and has one more story to do, and then I jumped in and did 3 stories originally claimed by people who ended up not participating. Can you proof listen to these 3 for me, or should I ask Kirk to...

It was so good to hear your voice again, Brenda! And that sounded EXCELLENT: you had just the right pa...

No need to apologize at all! Life happens! Thank you so much for letting me know. I like that story very much so I might just read it myself :D
I'll get in touch when we do Tales of 1926 to see if you want to jump in then.

Apologies for being so slow with this... I completely forgot I had signed up. If I read through the play correctly, Syra was only in Act 4, so here you go: https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/mercatorthemerchant_syra_4.mp3 time 5:12 Let me know if any fixes are needed, and if I missed a snippet of ...

Re: [SOLO] Weird Tales: Jules de Grandin Vol. 2, by Seabury Quinn-icequeen

Oooooh, what a great final story: I think that is my favorite so far... or at least it is a tie with the curse of the nun. What I liked about this one is that the Egyptian guy actually got to speak his piece in a serious way, even though we know that de Grandin has no sympathy for the Copts. Plus I ...

Re: SOLO The Delinquent, Vol. IV, Nos. 1-7 by National Prisoners' Aid Asoc. - rr

Your hard work is paying off: your reading is so clear and confident and easy to follow... a text like this, which was not written for oral delivery, is a challenge to read, and you are making it work great! I'll be out of town for the next week or so, back home on June 12 -- so if you record new ma...

Ha ha, that one made me laugh! Plus no dead bodies: that was a nice change. And I loved burning his clothes at the end; don't mess with Jules De Grandin ha ha ha. Sections 5 and 6 all good, with just a few little things here: Section 7 10:15 Daphne (DAF-nee, not Dapheen) 15:29 we do felicitate you (...

section #3 of issue #1 posted. with thanks! Wow, that section was fascinating! I liked how it had a lot of short pieces, with these glimpses into another world, but with so many of the same issues still being debated today. The one that really got to me, though, was about the sterilization. A frien...
