Hi Mike,
We have it as John W. Michaels in the catalog. That will be your name automatically now for anything you do in Librivox. One way to check is by searching for yourself in the catalog.

Good thing it wasn't much longer, since the character was giving me o sore throat.

Take care,
Mike

The Gun by Philip K. Dick

PG URL:
https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/29132

Recording duration: 32:51

It took me multiple attempts on two different browsers (Firefox and Safari) to get the upload to complete. Kept getting timeout errors. Finally succeeded with Safari - after I shut down my VPN - somethong I almost never do. Don't know if it's at my end or yours. I wonder what will happen when I try to send a big file...
