I’m not sure if I’m in charge of selecting PLs, but I’d love to have your help! If you’re concerned about the content, don’t worry it’s not very graphic.
Haha! I listened already and found that the man is mad but not gory. That is, in his account of things.

All three of the sections (1, 2, and 3) require very little work. All three need to have the opening silence reduced to between .5 and 1 seconds and the closing silence needs to be a full 5 seconds (and no more.)

Section 2, if my notes are correct, has a repeat at 1:42.

And that's it! Good work!
I made the changes you suggested and uploaded a couple more sections. Yes, Holmes was quite mad indeed. Even this account of him trying to appear normal does nothing to help his case! haha

When making corrections, the new recording is marked as 'Ready for Spot PL.' Not a big deal, but I thought you should get the hang of it. I went ahead and changed the Magic Window so that you could see what it looks like now.

Section 8

Well read, but there are two small issues to correct.

Our practice is to follow a footnote with "End footnote" or "End of footnote." They ought to be placed here at about 36:12 and 50:44.

Thank you so much for the feedback! We're in the home stretch now, one more long section then just a few more short ones and Holmes can go public! :clap:

Everything is nearly finished! Turns out we won't need a Section 16 after all.

Cheers!
