Hi Soupy, your contribution, "Agitation" by Horace Seaver is most certainly welcome in the nonfiction collection!

We do, however, have to get it downloaded!

Looking at the file name you just posted, I don't see the "snf029" part of the file name. Could you please check and see how you wrote the file name? I am posting how it should look.

•Save or export your recording to an mp3 file at 128kpbs using the following filename and ID3 tag format:
•

•File Name:
• (all lower case. Please omit a, the, etc from title): snf029_titleofwork_authorlastname_yourinitials.mp3

Could you please, after you're sure the file name is correct, try uploading again, and, then, if that doesn't work, let me know? Thanks much.

Ok, Soupy, thanks for trying again! We're going to get some help to figure out what's going on; I'll keep you posted.

Soupy, hi. I've been informed there was a problem with the uploader (on Librivox's end), and it has been fixed; I'm told you should be able to upload now without trouble. Would you be so kind as to try your file again? You're already in the MW, just waiting for the file! Thanks!

Arnie, Captain Mission is PL OK!

Perhaps a fascinating twist on the adage "honor among thieves?"

Soupy, Thanks for your patience! The file for "Agitation" is now in the MW and ready for PLing.

Soupy, "Agitation" is PL OK!

Horace Seaver has a pithy style!-- I laughed at "aligators enjoying a cold winter" . . .

I think so too. His whole book might be an interesting read.
