Yay!
I may get chapter 20 done tomorrow, but if I don't, have a great Easter!

Here is chapter 20: https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/texanstar_20_altsheler_128kb.mp3

Shoo! 37 minutes long!

I'm pretty sure after this chapter Urrea is a

traitor

. Just a hunch though, I leave it to you to decide for yourself.

Oh, yeah he's a traitor. Good chapter, well read.

There is a technical problem though. When I ran it through the "checker" it said it wasn't at 44.1 khz. I'm not sure but I think your file is at 48 khz. If you go to audacity with your file open and chose EDIT and then PREFERENCES and then QUALITY you can see the sample rate. set it to 41.1 save and export and post it again in the MW as ready for spot check and I can OK it because it sounded great, maybe the best chapter so far.

I forgot that again, didn't I?

I usually remember, but man, it was 11:30 when I got done editing. I'll have it to you later today.

Thank you! I didn't think I did so well, but thank you for the encouragement!

Section 20 , PL OK

I know about the editing. It usually takes me as long to edit as it does to record.

Here is chapter 21: https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/texanstar_21_altsheler_128kb.mp3

Only one more to go!

I hate to do this to you, but the volume is just over the guidelines. The max volume is 92 and yours is just a bit more than that. If you could just de-amplify by 1, it would be good and I will PL OK. Everything else was grand.

You really are getting better.

Again, chapter 21: https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/texanstar_21_altsheler_128kb.mp3

Do you have any recommendations for how I can keep getting better?

Here is chapter 22: https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/texanstar_22_altsheler_128kb.mp3

Now it's up to your MC to get it in the catalog. Have you let her know it's finished.

She, or someone else will have to set the new book up in the MW, and all the other stuff that I really don't understand.

Here I am.

New project is set up and I'll start cataloging this one.

Oh wait, I need a book summary before I can catalog it. It's the blurb that appears on the catalog page telling people about the book - no spoilers please! And it must be public domain (so no copying someone else's description of the book).
