Hi dear Kimberly,
as I see it, pling is not like reading. It's ok, and even blessed, if 2 people pl the same chapter (if both of them have time and as long as the project has no dpl). You can just pl what ever you want and post in the thread (here or elcewhere). And, saying that, of course you may pl chapter 5. Enjoy and good luck. Again, if you have questions, feel free to pm me. You see I answer gladly when I can.

I have just proof-listened the following chapter:
05 05 - Chapter 4 garyday 18.39 PL:NEEDED (morrowka to pl) ·
The overall quality of the reading was EXCELLENT. I came across the following minor errors:
1. Approximately 2 minutes into the reading: "examining his countenance": slight hesitation before the word "countenance".
2. Approximately 5 minutes into the reading: "Vivaldi . . . advancing": the word "in" is inserted between the words "Vivaldi" and "advancing". I'm not sure whether or not the word "in" is part of the text that should be there.
3. Approximately 7 minutes into the reading: "so that he could not compare even the . . . air of their heads." hesitation before the word "air".
4. Approximately 8 minutes into the reading: "the features of Scidoni suffered. . ." the letter S in "suffered" is stammered.
5. Approximately 11 minutes into the reading: "that I have been almost compelled" hesitation between the words "have" and "been".
6. approximately 13 minutes into the reading: "threw a brilliance even on his foibles." Slight stammer on the word "threw".
7. Approximately 16 minutes into the reading: "was yet upon his countenance". Slight stammer on the word "upon".

All other aspects of the reading suggested in the listener guide were perfect.

THanks, Kimberly. Hope you found the chapter interestig. However, I have a question. When you say "hesitation", what do you mean?

Hello Stav:

By "hesitation", I mean that the reader pauses a bit before reading the word, which detracts a bit from the fluidity of the reading. I might say, for example: I went to the . . . store". I unintentionally paused between the words "the" and "store"--a pause of over a second, which is a bit distracting.

Whether or not anything is done about these hesitations is, of course, completely your call. I simply wanted to point out anything I heard that might distract from the reading. This reader did an overall excellent job.
