Can I claim section 16? This will be my first submission, but I've already recorded and just have to edit. Credited as Lisa Desmond
I see you have the OK on your sample recording, so I'm glad to add you to the catalog and assign this section to you.
Just a tip though -- it's best to wait until your claim is acknowledged before recording. Probably okay in this case, but something to keep in mind as you go along.
Thank you. Yes, I wasn't going to submit anything until I got an okay, I just figured that I'd practice, and bonus if the thing I practiced on could actually be used. If not, no harm done, I'd just delete it and keep practicing. I recorded it several times, learning something new each time. I still might do it over again

Practice is always good!
But, keep in mind that editing is a big part of the process. I think I recorded my first poem over and over to get it perfect. But, it is better to keep going and edit out the mistakes in post production.
I would like to claim Our Table Girl for my chosen reading.
Thank you!
I've put you in for Section 18 which I think is the one you want.
Just a hint -- claiming including the section number makes it easier and clearer.
Very nicely read! I look forward to hearing more from you.
Just a couple technical items: all involving not reading but silence. Submitted files should have between 0.5 and 1.0 seconds of silence at the start and 5.0 seconds at the end. For your file I heard 1.7 and 4.2 respectively. Also, at 0:30 there was a gap of a little over 3.5 seconds; please shorten that to 1.5 - 2.0 seconds.
Once you have made those little fixes, just reupload using the same file name and then drop a note here in the forum.
Thanks,
Jim

I will be away from the studio from April 21st through April 28th.
I still might do it over again
