Hurrah! I've always wanted to produce a perfect recording for you and now I have.

Frontier, here I come!

I'm done!

p.s. There are only 22 chapters, not 23.

Hi Rainer,

I hoped to be done by Christmas, but not quite. But I have only three chapters remaining to edit so I should be done in the next few days. Then I will get to work on editing Frontier.

Fröhliche Weihnachten!

Hi Rainer, There are now 10 completed chapters on your server. I have finished recording all chapters (and two of them had to be recorded three times - technical difficulties, don't ask!) So I have twelve left to edit and plan to get them to you quickly. So that's the status report! Happy Holidays!

Hi Rainer, Chapter 1 of Sea Fairies is now on your server. It doesn't yet have a project folder but you should be able to find it soon enough. I got an email from a very kind listener and Oz enthusiast who thanked me for my recordings. So I am now determined to get this done and cataloged by Christm...

Nope, I've been working on it. I tend to record all chapters first and then edit them. Obviously, I missed Nov. 1 but it's coming along. Thanks for inquiring.

No problem, I sent you a PM about this some months ago. I am getting my braces off next week and will start recording then. It will be much easier without all that metal to talk around!

This project is complete. All audio files can be found on our catalog page: http://librivox.org/the-sea-fairies-by-l-frank-baum/ The Sea Fairies L. Frank Baum CL/ry (I've been working with Rainer for the last two years; he has agreed to MC this project as well) 2315 In 1910, Baum hoped to end the O...

Brilliant! Thanks so much.

Hmm, what shall my next project be? Right now I'm still recovering from my jaw surgery but within a month or so I should be ready to start recording something new. I'll be in touch.

Thank you! I am not surprised about chapter 18 - it was very long. Also the software I use for the mac computer crashes a lot so there is always the possibility of losing my place! You can see what Rinkitink is supposed to look like if you search for rinkitink in Google Image Search. No beard. :wink:

Not to worry! I was kidding about April Fool's - that would be heroic service indeed on your part. However, I do think that Rinkitink personifies the April Fool. I think Baum would agree.

Given Rinkitink's awful laugh, maybe it will be ready for cataloguing by April Fool's Day? Which, if you don't celebrate this in Germany, is April 1.

And I am finished! Chapters 18 and 19 are now on your server. I will check periodically to see if any corrections need to be made. Thank you!

I am determined to finish by the end of the weekend. But chapter 18 is VERY long - about a half an hour or so. Thanks!

Hi Rainer,

Thanks for the feedback. I fixed the repeat in chapter 10 and uploaded the new version on your server. Also I have uploaded two more chapters (15 & 16). I will try to do some more tomorrow. I hate to keep you in suspense.
