(Complete) G.K. Chesterton's Newspaper Columns: The New Witness - 1921 - m8b1

Thank you, Devorah! They are both PL OK!

Yes, that was odd on 6, but it sounds okay the way you read it. There isn't any other scan online that I can find, so we can't double check it

Here's my contribution, section 19

16:48

This is my first recording, so I understand if there is anything I should correct or do differently.

I'm not sure if I had a longer article than most, or if my pacing is too slow that it clocks in at about 2 minutes longer than any of the others...

Thanks

Thank you, Nathan! Great job ~ it is PL OK!

It could be one or the other or both, but 2 minutes give or take is not a big difference. I think your pacing was good.

Thank you! You did a great job!

There is only one thing that needs to be corrected. At the very end this needs to be snipped out (We only read that part of the outro for the very last section of a project

) "End of G.K. Chesterton's Newspaper Columns: The New Witness - 1921, by G. K. Chesterton."

Oops -- I see what I did there, thanks for catching my error & sorry about that! Here is the corrected file: https://librivox.org/uploads/m8b1/newwitness1921_15_chesterton_128kb.mp3, now 11m39s. Thank you.

Thank you! It is now PL OK.

It is an easy enough mistake to make when you are first starting.
