No problem, Catherine! :) Here is your reader page - if you click "reader section details" you can see a list of all the projects you have in progress, along with their statuses, which can be useful for keeping track of sections you need to record. https://librivox.org/reader/10724

Charity, thanks for the new test! I'm going to call it OK. :thumbs: You're now ready to record! :clap:

Deon, thanks for claiming, those two sections are yours :D

Mary Ann, here's 18...my very first Librivox recording! I haven't any idea how to edit, I wanted to play around with the software this weekend. There are two mistakes that I can specifically remember, once that I think I re-did twice near the end...lol. Please tell me what protocol is now.

Chapter 18 sounds great! Good job with your first recording! There's a couple things that need fixing. :)
10:55 repeat: "He patted her back soothingly"
16:05 repeat: "Here the clock struck twelve".
17:30-17:50 repeat: "She was back at her post in an instant"
18:45-19:00 repeat: "Before the girls"
20:55--you say "End of Chapter 19" and then "End of Chapter 18". It should be 18. :)
You also need to have 5 seconds of silence at the end after you say "End of Chapter 19."

If you're using Audacity, here's directions on how to edit. If not, someone will be able to help you out. :) For Audacity, highlight the section you want to get rid of by clicking where you want the selection to start and dragging to where you want it to end (the same as if you want to highlight text). Then either click the little scissor button on the toolbar, hit delete, or do ctrl-X. It'll get rid of the highlighted section. If you accidentally get rid of something, you can click the undo on the toolbar or ctrl-z as long as you don't do anything else first after you get rid of it. :)
Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any problems or if something doesn't make sense. It's great to have you here at Librivox! :D

Good job with Chapter 10! :D There's a couple PL notes:
0:17 I hear "The P.C. and P." (You're missing the last "o")
0:54 stumble over "heliotrope" (pronounced he-lee-oh-trow-p")
6:01 stumble over "propriety" (pronounced "pro-pry-it-ee")
You also need one more second of silence at the end. :)
Thanks!
Adele

Hi there!

I have sent in a one minute test and got the okay, so here I am! Could I please take 37,38, and 39 (Chapters 14-16)?

Also, could I use my first name, Daria, as my name here?

Thanks!
