Re: [FAIRY TALE] Peter Schlemihl by A von Chamisso -ck

I only wanted to share a suggestion and my own thoughts on the text :) I think your idea s a good one - the problem is that there are two types of readers in essence - those who read footnotes as they go along and those who don't. I'm definitely on of the latter (I usually go back and read them) bu...

Re: [FAIRY TALE] Peter Schlemihl by A von Chamisso -ck

It's just my opinion but I feel that putting the footnotes after the sentence they are listed in will be very disruptive to those primarily interested in a good story, rather than an opinion from someone who was not the author.

Hi

I have uploaded my test piece at https://librivox.org/uploads/tests/test_alanmcleod.mp3 and posted on the appropriate page.

I'd like my name listed as Alan McLeod please if the recording turns out OK.

Regards,
Alan

I am happy to try the first chapter (not the intro). This will be my first recording for Librivox.
