thanks John, another great chapter. So she fell into the stockbroker trap as well, who would have thought.

This time I found a couple of small errors, which nevertheless change the meaning a bit, so I think they would better be corrected:

> at 1:30: “Diane of the Follies,” in which she played a kind of vamp” – you say “tramp” but I think there is a bit of a significant difference between a vamp and a tramp ;)

> at 2:09: “I was not gay enough for the parties” – you say “pictures” but here she actually talks about the party life

Thank you, the rest is perfect.

thank you Carolin, this is a very beautiful narration :9: I really enjoyed listening to this section and I hope I hear more from you. (ah I see you claimed another chapter still :D )

Textually there were no errors at all, but there is one technical detail that needs to be corrected:

> your bitrate is 192 kbps instead of the required 128 kbps. Do you use Audacity ? Because you can change the settings in the exporting to mp3 phase, please do the following:

> go to File / Export Audio
> open Options in the lower right corner
> select the following settings: Bit Rate Mode: Constant / Quality: 128 kbps / Channel Mode: Joint Stereo
> press Ok

These settings should automatically be saved and you don't have to worry about it for your next recordings. :) Actually your last chapter had the correct settings, so you must have manually changed something for this file :hmm:

If anything is still unclear, don't hesitate to ask.

Please reupload with the exact same file name, so the new recording will replace the old recording in the MW.

Thank you

Sonia
Done! Thank you for the detailed instructions. I'm still learning the tech details.

excellent reading again, Andrea, thank you so much. No errors at all, so immediately PL ok. :)

So now the "motion picture days" are starting. So strange for me to read her biography in a total un-chronological order :lol:

thank you, John, this section is again PL ok. :thumbs: I had read up on the movie plot for Wind on wikipedia and it sounds like a really creepy atmosphere. I can't believe they didn't use the real sandstorm when it showed up. :lol:

I found a trailer from the movie, the endless sand drifting is really a palpable menace all throughout. :? I am glad I don't live in such regions.
