May I please have section 12 - Bluebeard?

Hi Tricia, Yes, option 2 is definitely where I’d like to become more search savvy! I suppose my problem might be knowing where to “hunt around” , what to hunt for, the best methods of hunting around for the thing I’m hunting for. :) There is sooooo much stuff on Gutenberg and soooo much stuff on Int...

Hi Everyone, I know there’s plenty to read here, but what if you’re looking for something of a particular length? The last reading I did had a finished time of about 44 minutes. Piece of cake for some, too much to handle easily for others (like me!). Would anyone be able to point me in the direction...

Lynette,
That’s quite alright! Thank you for PL!

Lynette, do I use the same file name when uploading the repaired version?

PL notes section 12: ~ 8:20 slight stumble "and the grandfather of Farragut and another Porter, and the great-grandfather of Sampson and Dewey." You added in an 'also', but as that doesn't change the meaning, that doesn't signify. Lynette, Ahh Yes, sorry, I'll fix that! Also noticed the I...

Hi there! I'd like section 12 IF it's possible to get it out of the magic window and into a reader. I'm new around here so I'm not sure how else to access the text (for marking up and such)... Can it be done? Finn I have assigned that section to you. If you click on the 'link to text' in the Magic ...

Hi Jo and gang,

Here is Section 7...
The length is 05:48.

Re-recording would be welcome practice

According to the Wikipedia article on Dr. Elliot Coues, it is pronounced /ˈkaʊz/ or 'cows' https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliott_Coues Well, this is embarrassing. To be honest, I haven’t used a dictionary in so long as a means of figuring out how to pronounce something, that I read right past the...

I've put you in for section 7, Finn. You are welcome to ask here about pronunciation and if we can't answer, the Need Help forum has a pronunciation thread as well. Also, there are lots of sites online with audio pronunciations. Some suggestions can be found in the wiki. See https://wiki.librivox.o...

May I take section 7, The Northern Phalarope, please?
If I have questions about pronunciation, may I ask them here or is there another section of the forum for that kind of thing?
