Ha, ha. Yep, the lisp was super hard. I did most if my lines 2 or 3 times before I got them right. It was fun to try something new though.

I have corrected both. The pronunciation at 47 seconds on the Apollo 15 clip. And the clipping in the Zeus clip. (I think I just ran the Zeus clip - checked the audio level on the checker, and then said - Oh, yeah that's right in the right volume, and then forgot to compress it - thanks for pointing...

Todd, I finished Jimmie Birch just now (and had fun doing that). I love playing the tough "best buddy". https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/mindthepaintgirl_jimmiebirch_1_128kb.mp3 Recording time: 3:41 min. https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/mindthepaintgirl_jimmiebirch_2_128kb.mp3 Recor...

I've haven't read stage directions yet - can I give it a go with The Line of No Resistance? I know we would read the intro/outro for the play. All the parts that aren't read by the actors. Everything in parenthesis. If the script says: Ethel: (rising) No. No. I wouldn't. Would I say "Rising.&qu...

Thanks for jumping in! In my question in the LOTE Help forum I suggested it might be a mess-up with "affaire d'honneur" (i.e. that the sound clip just ended up on the wrong page), I guess that might be the cause of the confusion. So not "de noeur" as I wrote it, but "d'honn...

I will take a look at Zeus when I get home. Fir the French phrase, I looked up the pronunciation online and two different sites said it was pronounced with ths n sound. I don't mind rerecording it with a c, but, I THINK, it should have the n sound. Let me know.

Hey all - Cranking them out this week! Here is Sam de Castro - I have also recorded "men" and "others" when they arose in the script. https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/mindthepaintgirl_samdecastro_1_128kb.mp3 https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/mindthepaintgirl_samdecastro_2_1...

Good Morrow All! This was super super fun to read! I loved it! Here are my various roles. https://librivox.org/uploads/leni/dialoguesofthegods_apollo_14_128kb.mp3 https://librivox.org/uploads/leni/dialoguesofthegods_apollo_15_128kb.mp3 https://librivox.org/uploads/leni/dialoguesofthegods_apollo_17_1...

Hey - I'm working on recording my dialogues and have done a number of Apollo and Hermes. I noticed that the last dialogue is also Apollo and Hermes, and I grab Apollo on that last dialogue - 85 - as well?
Thanks
Aaron

Thanks Sonia - it was one of my favs to play so far. I like the fooled old man parts. In high school I did Gremio in the Taming of the Shrew and played him much the same - but way greedier - and that was one of my favorite plays to do, even though the part wasn't very big.

As for pronunciations, yours are fine. It doesn't matter if another reader pronounces a name differently, in real life, people sometimes do that too. Only thing we ask is that you yourself are consistent throughout your role. And here I found two spots where you pronounced Chrysis with a short 'i' ...

Sign him up for an account, please. You can do all the posting for him (obviously), but each reader needs a separate identity. :) No problem, I'll get him signed up. I asked because I think ***I think*** I saw another user do something similar with their offspring and they just used their own. I kn...

Glad you figured out what I was trying to say - not what I said. Thanks

Aaron,

Does he have a username?

No - do you think I should sign him up for an account - or just put it under my name?
