Sorry! Do I need to re-record the poem? Or just edit? Thanks, Juliana I hope Alan won't mind my jumping in to answer this. You edit just the parts that need to be corrected. The reason is that Alan, as the dedicated proof listener (DPL) has already invested time into listening critically to your re...

Welcome to Librivox Juliana :D good first reading. One comment - the volume is a bit too high at 95.8 dB. You should aim for your waveforms to peak near the 0.5 mark, like this: http://wiki.librivox.org/images/4/4d/Volume.jpg You can check your volume using our Checker program - see info at http://...

Thanks for your help!

Thanks Winnie. Here's another try:
