Complete [DRAMATIC READING] Black Beauty by Anna Sewell-m8b1

[m8b1]

I just looked at the MW. There are 11 chapters that haven't been edited, including the DP. 6 of those haven't been claimed for editing. Of the 5 that have been claimed, 3 are waiting on parts:
Chapter 8 is waiting on lines from Squire Gordon (silverquill)
Chapter 27 is waiting on lines from Lord W (Zames Curran). I heard from him on the 28th and he said he'd do it but it would be a few days.
Chapter 35 is waiting on lines from Governor Gray (Twinkle88)
We're so close!! I'll edit 44 next.

I PM'd Silverquill back on November 16th about his lines. He has picked up the PM, but has not replied yet.

Thank you for all the Pl'ing, Beth ~ and for the editing, Kim!

Chapters 22, 23, 24, 44, 45, 39 and the spot PL for Ch 33 are all PL OK!

His signature says he'll be back to Librivox around mid Dec.

I don't know if you want to know this, but there appear to be two mistakes which were read into the original files.

@0:46 and 1:00 Polly says "Mr Baker" when the name is "Mr Barker"

I would not normally pick this up, but Jeremiah Barker is one of the main human characters in the book, and this is his wife speaking! So, unfortunately, I'm going to recommend that we fix this. If necessary, the one paragraph can be re-read, and I know that Kristin is still around...

The whole paragraph is this one:

'the real fact is, master was put out because Mr. Barker refused to come on Sundays, and he has been trying other cabs, but there's something wrong with them all; some drive too fast, and some too slow, and the mistress says there is not one of them so nice and clean as yours, and nothing will suit her but Mr. Barker's cab again.'"

Wow, that's a lot of PLing, Beth! Now you're caught up and we've got to get more for you to PL! I've updated the MW and we're 90% done! I'll edit 46 next.

[AdeledePignerolles]

Chapter 46 is ready for PL

[Elizabby]

Chapter 46 is PL OK!

(In case it got missed earlier, I wanted to point out that the title of Chapter 25 is incorrectly spelled in the MW. Should be "Reuben Smith" to be consistent with the text title.)

I believe these are a different characters lines.......the driver......... so taken care of and labeled here:

If you wish I will do it in the same voice as Skinnier.
aloha
joe t.
hopefully ok and different enough from the later Skinnier who runs the drivers and stable, same chapter.

[AdeledePignerolles]

This is so exciting! I've put all the chapters and everything in the MW and I'll fix the spelling. So now we're just waiting on lines from readers and we'll be done!!
