Re: [SOLO] Bicycling for Ladies by Maria E. Ward -jo

Chapter 17 sounded fine, Tricia! The only change I made was to adjust the volume slightly, to match it to the earlier sections. Normally, you would now PL it. But since you already listened as you edited, and then I also listened, I suppose we can just mark it PL OK. https://librivox.org/uploads/kno...

Thank you, Tricia! It's too late to listen tonight, but I will listen tomorrow. I'm sure the file is fine.
I'll tackle chapter 18 on Monday!

Re: [SOLO] Bicycling for Ladies by Maria E. Ward -jo

Thanks! I will upload the file. Usually the "keeper" is the last version. Sometimes I have a go once too often, and my voice cracks, or I stumble, or whatever on the last version. If the previous version sounds obviously better, then keep that one. i trust your judgement. (We've worked tog...

Re: [SOLO] Bicycling for Ladies by Maria E. Ward -jo

Tricia, thank you for the offer! I've never had someone else edit for me before, but I'm willing to hand over a chapter and we'll see what happens. My editing mostly deals with (1) outright stumbles and stutters, the usual stuff we all have, (2) occasional loud mouth-clicks at the breath-taking spac...

Re: [SOLO] Bicycling for Ladies by Maria E. Ward -jo

Oh, my goodness! Honestly, with the routines of life these past months, LibriVox itself has fallen off my radar, I'm ashamed to say. I'm so sorry to have left you hanging all this time! Thank you for reminding me! I have a bunch of chapters which I recorded last summer, when I was off from work with...

Re: Name my New Computer

All my computers have had names. The first one was a decade-old castoff from a relative. My dad named her Bessie, because he said she was "a slow old cow". Her successor, a few years later, was Matilda, aka "Waltzing Matilda", because compared to Bessie she waltzed very gracefull...

Re: LibriVox 18th Anniversary Collection - tg

Hmm. The Wikisource one is President Roosevelt's proclamation of the repeal, and the Library of Congress one is the actual statute itself. I found an original scan of the Presidential proclamation here: https://catalog.archives.gov/id/299967?objectPage=5 (the page scans go from last to first). Mari...
