Love of Life, by Jack London, in one file, 51 minutes long including silence at the end. I think I got the ID3 tags right!

I've another Jack London story I can add to this volume. Only three pages long, but brilliant! He was the master of the short story. Shall I?

Oh, of course... do as many as you like... they're all welcome =)

To the best of my knowledge, all of Jack London's work is now in the public domain. I searched through the London story collections on the Gutenberg site, but did not find The Leopard Man. I found it here:

http://www.classicreader.com/read.php/sid.6/bookid.181/

Is this all right, to use as a link to the text? There are many others, just none on Gutenberg that I can find.

Yes, the "Leopard Man" is a great choice... and that source is just fine. I believe it is also included in this collection: http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/1089 but has the name "The Leopard Man's Story"... is that the same one?

Enjoy =)

Yes! That's the same story, in the Moon Face collection. It's been so many years since I read it, I'd forgotten which book it was in (and Gutenberg doesn't have it listed on the download page in the book contents). Thanks for finding it! I will use that link instead of the commercial one.

The story is recorded and will be edited today.

PS: Jack London wrote a short story called "Pinched", about being arrested for vagrancy:

I'll do that one as well. If this is too much of one author for volume 006, perhaps it can go in another volume?

Excellent Sandra! ... I don't mind having several stories from the same author in a single collection; so, go for it =)

Here is Jack London's short story "Confession", from his volume of short stories The Road. A tale of hobo-ing and tramping!

Thanks Linda! I'll take a listen later today... Also, I want to verify how you would like your name to appear on the catalog page... as Linda Wilcox? any url to go with it? =)

EDIT: Sounds great Linda! Great job! =)
