Well,
Section 3 is done......

I'm mildly terrified of how that "written in" accent would go over if someone with a real Scottish brogue were to listen to it so please let me know what you think!
If it happens to be that I should scrap it and start over, I'm completely open to that.

No' a BIT o' it, Dearie, on needing to entirely re-record! *Smile*
VERY nicely read, Melissa, and while not a native Scots English speaker, I feel sure that they'd no' fault you for your effort here!
It does not sound as an offensive caricature of the dialect at all, so no worries.

One wee note:
There is a missing line at
4:18 ^^We wull, indeed !” said Mrs. MacKerrie, with all her heart in the words.

Happy to spot check when you're able to get the file to us!

Best,

Ahhh, thank you especially for a long section.
They can be ... well. A little painful to record. *Laugh*
I appreciate the time it takes.

A well told story, and by this time in my listening to the book, when comes the line "Dr. Scholar Crutch succumbed to love"
(which you gave a little pause to, nicely) ... I thought ... "Mannnn! It is CURTAINS for you, Mister! Oh. So harshly." *Laugh* ... 'cause I'm just LIKE that!

One note:
7:24
Text: It spreads itself carelessly on two banks of a restless ...

I hear carefully

I'll be happy to Spot check when you can get the correction to us.

Best!

Oh. You caught that.

I guess I wasn't reading carefully enough and did my proofing carelessly.

Ah, that's what your DPLs are here for; those slip-ups are common.
Psychologically, it relates to your eyes, brain and speech mechanisms all attempting to perfectly sync.
It's a complex process ... OH SO OBVIOUSLY TO ALL NARRATORS ... *Laugh*

Nor can one, with perfect efficiency, proof their own work, either in written or spoken form. *Smile*

One small mistake out of a 30+ minute recording, and that well corrected ... I'm not displeased at all.

PL Ok!

Thank you, Melissa! The addition is well done.

And *Blush*
My apology. I now see that I gave you the wrong time of the instance.
I hope it wasn't too difficult to locate.
Well. *BLUSH* At least I had the section noted this time. *Smile*

Much Appreciation!

Angelique,

I caught on that your time stamp was missing the initial "1" and still found the omission right away.

Section 12 is 19:07
It felt really "hissy". Let me know if it's distracting.

Great, Melissa!

Would you please upload the file to section 12? *GRIN*

(If I giggle at you here ... it's only because I too well relate to having the greatest difficulty with what I think SHOULD be some of the simple things!
I'll still trash the Intro and Outro ... repeatedly ... on a recording.

)

Ahhh, Librivox. Teaching us self patience! *LAUGH!*

Looking forward to hearing your story!

I can run all this cool editing software and can't manage copy and paste. Awesome!

BurgundyGrace · Post by **BurgundyGrace** » January 31st, 2019, 5:58 pm

*Grin* I am pleased to say that section 12 is All PL OK!

And, oh, most sincerely, yes, *AWESOME!* contributions, Melissa!

It was a treat to listen to you throughout your selections and I so sincerely hope to hear more from you throughout many projects here!

Best Regards ... *SMILE!*

You certainly know how to make a Newbie into an Addict!
Off to find more sections to read. Is Kaely wrapping up the other chapters for Faith?
