I just finished listening to Robinson Crusoe, and would love to record for some of Jules Vern's texts. Or Uncle Tom's Cabin.

I submitted my test, however, I did not use an "MC" I used the test-test Button instead.

I'm excited to record texts, and excited to continue listening.

Hello annise,
Thanks for the quick response,

The file should be called "Librivox recording test 3.mp3"

Currently, I'm looking through the website to determine how recording submission works.
But I have a question, and perhaps this isn't the place to ask it.

Is there ever a need/want to record works that have already been recorded?

When I listened to Robinson Crusoe, it was one reader throughout the story.
If possible I would prefer to do something like that for an entire novel.

Librivox operates under a “freedom of voice” philosophy. If you want to record it, even if there are other versions, you may. In fact, you will be doing a service to listeners- it is nice to have choice.
Critical feedback is ALWAYS welcome - in the forum or via PM

That's right, but please , don't leap into a solo first off. Do the test , read something short from readers wanted first. There are some things you only learn by doing. We want you , we want you to be pleased with your readings as much as is possible .
