Hi Helena,
Thanks for volunteering! I'm so glad that you've decided to help out with this project. And it looks like you'll one minute test was approved, so I'll add you to the MW right away.
As for your question about the intro... well, I'm really glad you brought this to my attention. I'm not sure if it's obvious, but this is an abandoned solo recording I am taking over and completing as a group project. Unfortunately, I made a slight mistake when I took charge of this one: I didn't take into account the original intro used in all of vinal's recordings.
In his recordings, he seems to give us the section number without numbering the chapter. It usually goes like:
"Section [#] of Prison Memoirs of an Anarchist by Alexander Berkman. This Librivox recording is in the public domain. Recorded by _____. [chapter title]."
It seems he didn't provide part or chapter numbers... which is odd.
I'm going to contact annise (our MC) about this, but for now I would go ahead and give us the part and chapter numbers right before the chapter title. Something like this:
"Section [#] of Prison Memoirs of an Anarchist by Alexander Berkman. This Librivox recording is in the public domain. Recorded by _____. Part [#], Chapter [#]: [chapter title]."
This might be slightly inconsistent with the original recordings (and if annise thinks we should remain consistent, I'll let you know and amend this), but I think providing that information is important and will help anchor the listener. I'll edit the initial post to reflect this change.
Anyway, I'll PM her right now to get her opinion.
And again, thank you for joining us.
