You got it!! I look forward to working with you on this charming story.
Now, I have to get Availle to change the status in the Readers and Listeners forum(s).
THANK YOU!!!

I was gone for a few days while I had surgery, but am back now.
I have added Michele as DPL and cleaned up the subject line.
I have been told that all that work you did on the title column is superfluous... it will not show on the catalog page and may cause players to crash. All you should have is "Book 1, Ch 1-4" etc. Any other information should go in the notes column... which, as I mentioned before, doesn't get carried over.

Doggone it!
I ask this of you: please try to confirm that my added text in the title column is a no-no. I am asking because I really would like to entice readers to go further in the book by teasing them with the chapter titles. Is there any way to TEST?
Of course I'll skinny-them-down if necessary. But, Doggone it!
Thank you for all your MC work on this project, already.
I hope your surgery was routine and with a good outcome.

Thank you... it was a 3 year follow-up, following a 1 year follow-up, following a 6 month follow-up. I don't have to go back for 5 years, so I take that as a win
Here is what is going on with the titles... you definitely need to delete the page count and time from that column. They are inappropriate but could be added to the notes. As for the chapter titles, they are just too long. I'm not sure what the cutoff is but I am prepared to try and see where it gets us, knowing that I might need to run it twice (the second time, pared down). The colors are, apparently, a no-no. I didn't know this before... and according to several admins, no one has tried to add them (but according to the techie admins, it just won't work).

Well, hecky-darn! I'll skinny-down the titles this afternoon (1:30pm here now)
Thank you for catering to my requests. I appreciate it.

I would like to proof-listen to this, please. P.S I'm new to this forum so I'm wondering if I should just start from Chp1 or if I should work on specific chapters?

Thank you for this kind offer, however there are two points I need to bring up:
(1) wib66 has already asked to be the DPL (Dedicated Proof Listener) for this project; and (2) your request is the very first posting you've made to Librivox. You've not even performed the 1-minute test as suggested in your Welcome To Librivox letter. Please get some experience under your belt as a narrator of Librivox projects (books, poems, short stories, etc.) as preparation for the Proof Listening function.
Again, thank you, but the fit is not good at this time.

Note: some proof listeners have never recorded a section. Although I agree it is a good idea to have experience of LV, there are many ways to help out. It might be a good idea to PL one section rather than claiming a DPL position, just to see if it suits you. Also, please prepare by reading the guide to proof listening in the wiki.
Sections 1 to 7 are PL OK thoroughly enjoying listening.
