Ah Helen, I'm so excited to have you on as DPL. :9: This book is dynamite! Nemo and I have a duet already which I hope to upload tonight.

If not, why then, this parting was well made.

Two for PL: The Brook, and Letters. (whee! these were a blast.)

This project is so exciting; it made me realize I've been vastly, and lazily, misreading Tennyson this whole time.

PL OK :9:


*Note: 7, 7

Why does this sect show up like this in my PL view?

Thanks Helen!

I could be wrong, but I believe it shows up that way because there are two readers assigned to that section so you are PL'ing both?

It's really great, Nemo :cry:

This crying is for my recordings that have to follow yours. But what a pleasure of a reading. It is an asset to the Tennysonverse. Geez.

Also, the sound is just terrific. Hiring those angels as a noise screen must have paid off. :hmm:
