Hi - sorry to be a pain again, but my latest Conan Doyle story is 1:04:55 as recorded and PL'ed by me. I can't seem to find ones I haven't yet done, which are under an hour. It has failed the Checker test but only due to it being longer than an hour, as before. If it is too long I could perhaps sub...

It just doesn't take as well in some as in others. :wink: Campbell...

I have recorded four books of adventure stories (Biff Brewster series) which are aimed at teenagers as well as adults. You can look under my username (lurcherlover). One is called "The Mystery of the Chinese Ring."

Recording to video is harder because unless it is possible to cut and change the angle of the shot then it has to be done in one take. You did extremely well, and the "almost" stumbles were perfectly OK and only people like us who do recordings will even notice. They were so well covered a...

Well, it sems like I make a hell of a lot of mistakes compared to those readers. I also swear a hell of a lot more as well. I think and hope though, that I don't just read the text, as in the first example (the guy that was pretty bad). I do try to put some expression into it. I suppose the thing th...
