Hi and welcome to Librivox!
There are a few things to do before you get started.
You will need to complete a one minute test - this is to check your specs are up to Librivox standards, and if not, you'll be given hints on how to remedy that. http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/1-Minute_Test
Please post your test in the Listeners Wanted forum (see the dropdown at the bottom of the page) for the speediest response. Waiting for the OK may seem tedious, but can save time in the long run. Please be sure to complete this within 7 days.
You will also need to be added to the catalog of readers. I will add you using your forum name, but if you prefer your real name or a pseudonym let me know. We can also link to a personal blog or website. If you click on your name in the Magic Window, you will see your own personal catalog page. I will assign sections 7 and 12 to you.
Be sure to read the first post - all the info you need is there, but if anything doesn't make sense, just ask. The wiki (see the top of the page) has bundles of info too.

Great reading in sections 2, 3, and 4! I was just going to listen to one while eating lunch, but I had to listen to all three... ;)

There is one thing to fix in all three recordings: the outros should be "end of section [number]" instead of "end of [title of the chapter]". Please edit and reupload :)

Everything else is very good :thumbs:

kathrinee,

Thanks for the feedback! :)

I have one clarification I'd like to ask before I re-record the outtro:
I've been interpreting the "Section" keyword of the outtro instructions to mean the section title because it's the same keyword for the intro instructions and there it pretty clearly means section title (e.g. "My Monks of Vagabondia, by Andress Small Floyd. [Section]"). If the instructions for the outtro were in error and the outtro is always the number I'm happy to fix that, but just confused for future reference since other the other projects I've worked which have used similar instructions have not brought it to my attention that "Section" should be interpreted as the number in the outtro :?

Please advise, thanks

It varies by project and is up to the BC and DPL to decide - some decide it doesn't matter, others think consistency is more important.

Thank you. I've added it to the MW for proof listening, and have edited your catalog entry.
