The Beast With Five Fingers by WF Harvey

This was made into a black-and-white movie that I remember scaring the fertilizer out of me. Okay I was 5, but still... I've found two versions, one at Gutenberg and one at Horrormasters. The Gutenberg versions seems to be missing the last page...with the punchline, so I'll go with the HM version: h...

My own method for long recordings; Read straight thru - don't stop the recording. If I make a mistake or want to re-read something.. pause...start over at the beginning of the sentence or paragraph. Makes editing really easy...you can see the flat spot in the audiowave...don't have to be splitting s...

I use a Samson Q1U which is a fine little mic. It's a USB mic so plugs straight into the computer and is a dynamic mic. Have a look at the wiki http://librivox.org/wiki/moin.cgi/UserRecommendedEquipment and that might give you a few options. I think I've heard that Macs come with Garage Band softwa...

Re: getting ready to buy stuff--adivce for a mac user?

Hi friends: I'm getting ready to stick my big toe in from listening to recording but I have to get the hardware and the software (can we say "Christmas present?" I guess that means that I'm officially hooked!) Anyway--I have an iBook running 10.3.9. no mic and no recording software. But, ...

Thanks for the summary. 16-18 with both of your corrections has been uploaded. I just downloaded 16-18 and the errors are still there. You're right. Man, that's the second time I've done that, and I'm still not sure how. Anyway, I replaced it. Also just uploaded 25-26. 27 will be separate. Altogeth...

Last chapters in the works. I'd be done if my neighborhood hadn't been invaded by The Beasts with Grassblowers. Here's my summary (with kind assistance from Sayeth): Alan Green is a space traveler stranded on a barbaric planet who has been taken slave and made a consort to an insipid and smelly quee...

I just finished reading the book on my own and loved it. However, the summary from Wikipedia stinks and is just plain wrong. How's this: Alan Green is slave and consort to a insipid and smelly queen. His wife, though beautiful and smart, nags him constantly. Then there's that hateful dog! He just w...

Yes, a week. This must be some kind of record. :D Actually, your output is making me aware of my slow progress on my own solo project that I'm pretty sure I started before you started the last Jeeves. Note to self - record more and aimlessly wander the forum less. I've gotten in to the habit of rea...

Chapters 22-24 uploaded. Only one section to go? Is this possible? I put the first one up on the 7th. This whole book couldn't have been done in a week, could it? I mean, I still have a day job and everything. Maybe I need to pay more attention to quality.

Erm... Were you planning on combining chapters? Or did you mean 27? I put in 27 if that is not right let me know and I'll change it. Also, PMing you instructions for updating the magic box. The chapters are very short, so I plan to do 3 or 4 per recording, 7 total. Actually there'll be 9 sections, ...
