Yes, better. I guess that's why they ask us PL'ers to listen through earphones. It does make the pops, clicks, hisses and bkg noise more prominent.

Leni, is it possible to change my name in the catalog to "Victoria Neely"? I think maybe it slipped through the cracks a while back.

I'm a bit busy over the Memorial Day weekend, but am squeezing LV stuff in here and there. I look forward to listening soon.

Chapter 6 is PL OK

PL Notes Section 7

11:54 there is not a talent, or an aspiration, or a joy in me -- you say inspiration. I am just mentioning this in case you want this chapter as perfect as all the rest is. I don't think any listener would notice.

This is the chapter that I think inspired me, as a girl, to years later aspire to become a teacher. It's beautiful.

Chapter 8 is PL OK. Poor birdie! :shock:

Thanks for catching that one! Weird what the brain filters out. I've re-uploaded chapter 7, same URL, same duration, with the one modification at 11:54 (https://librivox.org/uploads/leni/storyofmylife_07_keller_128kb.mp3).

Chapter 9 is ready too: https://librivox.org/uploads/leni/storyofmylife_09_keller_128kb.mp3 (duration: 6:24)

I enjoyed chapter 7 too. I'm impressed at all the creative ways Miss Sullivan found to teach Helen about the world. Chapter 6 is probably my favorite so far, mostly because of the way Miss Sullivan tries to explain love.

Poor birdie indeed! A nice happy chapter full of Christmas joy, and then... :shock:

Love is hard to explain. It has so many levels. I love 'em all! :mrgreen:

9 is PL OK
