I'm just waiting for someone to 'ok' my test recording.

I still need to know what name you want listed in the catalog.

Have you recorded before? You've taking on a big load. Any chance you could get one of the sections finished in the next couple of weeks and then you can decide if you think you will be able to complete the rest of them within the two month claim period? I'm holding all of them for you as of now.

Please let me know if you have any questions along the way. Good luck and have fun.

Nancy, Thank you for the extra claims. I put you in for 44-46.

Helen, thanks for all the PL work.

Put me down as Jared Hinde for the catalog. That's how I'll have my name in the intro to the chapters.

Yes, I've recorded before. I'll create a signature so that you can see my recording setup.

I'll most likely have section 49 done by tomorrow.

I'll focus on getting each chapter done within 2-3 days of the previous one. I may even have a sizable chunk of time to read/edit this Saturday.

Thank you for holding the chapters for me. I read through them last week (long before signing up for this website) and I found that Mr. Barnum has a pleasant sense of humor that he conveys through the text.

I’d like to claim sections 71, 72, and 73.

I signed up to read Section 15, Chapter 10, Part 2. Unfortunately, I will not be able to complete the recording in a timely fashion, so I must withdraw from the commitment.

I will take section 15 if nobody else wants to claim it. Nancy

Thank you all for your patience. I've been in recovery mode this week and have fallen a little bit behind here at LV. Now that my MBA program is complete (woohoo) and the chores are almost caught up I'm returning to normal.

Jughead: Thank you for the quick turnaround on your first section. Your catalog page is here: https://librivox.org/reader/12867 There is a link "Reader section details" which I find very helpful.

Ciufi - thank you for your claims.

dread - thank you for letting me know. I hope to see you again soon on this or another project.

Nancy, thank you for picking up the orphaned section and for your completed section 44. MW updated.

Just curious, I uploaded chapter 4 on the 16th. Has it been checked yet? Nancy

linny · Post by **linny** » October 19th, 2018, 12:49 pm

It sure hasn’t. I’m sorry Nancy. I missed it in the thread. It’s now in the MW.

PL note:
Hi Nancy,

(16:40) You have the required five seconds of silence, but you are missing the closing at the end of the section.

"End of Chapter 27

*Note: your recording voice is excellent (clear and strong). It was a pleasure listening to you.
