well at least that keeps me on my toes :lol:
Although you marked this as PL OK, I went ahead and fixed both errors, if you'd like to do a quick spot check just to make sure all is well.
I love your dedication :) And the chapter is yet again PL ok. :thumbs:

On to the final chapter, even though, the suspense is gone now since we know whodunnit. Now probably only comes the happily ever after ending.

And sure enough, chapter 24, being the final, has been uploaded and posted.

Thanks! :)

and a great finale with happy ending. Though I must say, Kittie would not have been left off the hook so easily nowadays. There would still be an inquest where she would have to appear. I mean, we only have her word for it that it really was only an accident in self-defense :hmm:

But: a great ending to a great story. I'm almost sad it's finished.

I have one final PL note here, just to be totally consistent:

> at 7:49: you forgot to say "End of Chapter 24" which you normally say in each chapter.

The rest, totally fine !

Thanks for the great listening pleasure yet again. :9:

That's a good catch. You are right, I always give the "end of chapter ...", so I've patched the file and re-uploaded (and modified the length in the MW).
Ready for a spot PL at your convenience.

Thanks!! :thumbs:

Thanks Jo and Sonia. I'm glad this is in the catalog.
My only beef is in the author's name, but I suppose there isn't anything you can do about that. Just one of the many limitations placed on us by technology.

Thanks again!

Hi Roger. I added a note about the author to the summary. See what you think -

https://librivox.org/the-hemlock-avenue-mystery-by-lily-a-long/

Roman Doubleday is entered as a pseudonym so a catalog search for either Lily A. Long or Roman Doubleday will get you to this book.

Thanks Jo.
It makes me wonder - what if a Roman Doubleday book had been cataloged before anything by Lily A. Long.
Wouldn't Roman Doubleday then have been the 'main' author in the catalog, and subsequent works by Lila A. Long have been 'by Roman Doubleday'?
Never mind, I guess it doesn't make that much difference either way. It's just a personal beef of mine.
Thanks again for your efforts, they are very much appreciated !

When we introduced the new catalog, we made the decision to (1) standardize author entries as one entry in the database per author and (2) to use the author's real name as the main entry with pseudonyms added to the main author entry. We have made a few exceptions in cases where all (or almost all) works by an well-known author were only written using a single pseudonym. Mark Twain is an example, where Twain is the main database entry with Samuel Clemens is entered as the "pseudonym." I think there are also a few from the Stratemeyer Syndicate entered by pseudonym where the actual author is unknown.
