This project is complete. All associated files can be found on the catalog page: http://librivox.org/persuasion-by-jane-austen-4/

Persuasion by Jane Austen.

Click here to be notified by email when this book is complete!
Several years before the events of the novel, Anne Elliott fell in love with a young and handsome but poor naval officer. She was persuaded by her friends and family to refuse him when he asked her to marry him. Now she meets him again... (Summary by Karen Savage)
IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project will be opened up to a group project as soon as a Book Coordinator can be found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to have it re-instated).

MAGIC WINDOW:

(BC admin)
  • The reader will record the following at the beginning and end of each file:
    Start of recording (Intro)
    • "Chapter [number] of Persuasion. - This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information, or to volunteer, please visit: librivox DOT org"
    • If you wish, say:
      "Recording by Karen Savage"
    • Say:
      "Persuasion by Jane Austen. [Chapter]"
    For the second and all subsequent sections, you may optionally use the shortened form of this intro disclaimer:
    • "Chapter [number] of Persuasion. This LibriVox recording is in the Public Domain.
    • If you wish, say:
      "Recording by [your name]"
    • Say:
      "Persuasion by Jane Austen. [Chapter]"
    End of recording
    • At the end of the section, say:
      End of [Chapter]"
    • At the end of the book, say (in addition):
      "End of Persuasion by Jane Austen."
    There should be 5 seconds silence at the end of the recording, or 10 seconds for files longer than 30 minutes.
  • Example filename
    persuasion_##_austen.mp3
  • Example ID3 V2 tags
    Title: Chapter ##
    Artist: Jane Austen
    Album: Persuasion

Chapter 1 sounded just fine to me! I didn't listen with the text, but I didn't hear anything funny, so you can mark it OK if you want :)

Are you interested in a DPL? I volunteer, if you are! It would make this a local project!

Sounds great, thanks Susan!
