I'd prefer to hear people's natural accent reading a piece, no matter what the accent or the setting of the text. Bad "English" accents make me twitch, (probably very much like my version of an American accent would do for many.) :D But if people want to read like that, it *is* completely...

Given the great popularity of the Dr. Seuss books, I would venture to guess that copyrights were renewed, but you'd have to check each individual work. I don't care. I'm STILL gonna record How The Grinch Stole Christmas , even if I can't put it here and folks have to email me for it. So there. Nyah...

Hey Kay,

Thanks much. Very appreciated.

Hey there,

I'd like to listen to the Community Podcast, but I don't really care to use any podcast services; I either stream the podcast (if available) or download the mp3 of the pocast on to my HD for listening. Any way I can do that with the Community Podcast? Thanks.

SmokestackJones , what a pleasure to see/hear you again! A fine reading of a classic story. :) I do need to ask you to do one thing: could you please change your bit rate it from 192 kbits/sec to 128? The validator (and more importantly, archive.org) are fussy about their file specs. Thanks! -Catha...

Hey there, See, I'm not completely gone :mrgreen: Between chapters of the book I'm doing, I knocked off my first Poe - Masque of The Red Death (14:58) - in honor of Halloween: http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ce/ghohor001_masque_poe_gmh.mp3 Source: http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/1062 Enjoy. ...

Hey Kristin,

Ah, that's probably what she meant. Still, pretty weird...

Hey there, Okay, I've been puzzling over this. I got a comment on my blog. A lot of them lately have been for my LV work, but this is downright confusing. A Lisa Gehrig wrote: Hello Smokestack. I am another of your Librivox fans. The first one of your readings I heard was "The Taming of the Bic...

Hey Shurt,

Oh, you will. Just not with any regularity for thr next couple of months until I can nail down this bad boy.

-SJ

WOW Good job SJ. Can't believe it! So how did it happen did they just email you one day or was it auditioned? how did it go down? Congrats Hey Shurt, Well, it was thanks to LV. Simon posted a call here for readers for a professional project and I emailed him, sent an audition recording, one thing l...

Hey there,

This sounds funny, but I'd love to read some of the Batman stuff, whether the comics or novels/novelizations. I think it'd be a helluva lot of fun.

I like the way you think.
