Nearly done with my 2 chapters, sorry they'll be after the deadline. I was sick for the first 3 weeks of August and my voice hasn't been fit to record till the last couple of days. I'll try to finish them up this weekend...

Sorry to hear of the health challenges ... I've had blood drained from knee joints, so I know about recent setbacks ... but still, our voices are healthy and well, right?

Done! Both chapters 26 & 27 available via this link:

Phew, it's nice to finally have my voice back without sounding horribly gravelly and crusty.

What's going on with this project? Is it going to continue? I hope so...

It's run out of gas ... I'm half thinking of putting it in mothballs till next summer's movie season, when the last Pirates of the Caribbean comes out.

As long as there are people to record and claim chapters, it'll continue. Don't worry too much about it though, some projects like to take their time, but they'll make it

Hey Denny, you should make an advertisement for the community podcast calling for volunteers

That might bring up the activity for a little while.

Looks like you could use another reader in this project. I'll record Chapter 15 - The Ransom if you like.

I'd like to read another chapter - probably 14 makes the most sense so that I will have read two in a row (nothing like reading a book in reverse!).

Great ... I'll put you down for 14, and thanks for 15.

Chapter 7, "Pirates", is finished. Quite squirmingly gruesome, actually.

I will attempt to send it. Shall I do Chapter 8 as well?

Well, whaddaya know... something actually uploaded. Here's Chapter 7! It's in Gesine's uploader, and when I checked it was completely uploaded, not a partial job.

Here is chapter 8: Spaniards

You will find it on Gesine's uploader. I have not been able to use yousendit successfully all week.

A possible problem with the ID3 tags: I am using an updated version of Audacity, called 1.3. The ID3 tag mechanism is different and when I play the file back on Windows Media Player, the ID3 tag does not show up, even though I exported the file with proper tags. Can you find any tags on the recent files I've sent?
