Hi, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to read sections 17 and 18. However, now that I'm reading them out loud, I am really struggling with the pace and structure of the sentences and where to take a breath. So, would you please excuse me from this assignment so that someone else can take this on? For future projects, I'll try reading out loud before asking! Thank you for understanding!
[COMPLETE] The Soft Side by Henry James - icequeen
Ok, thanks for letting me know. Henry James is definitely one of the more difficult-to-read authors I've recorded along with Nathaniel Hawthorne (both are fond of ornate prose and long sentences).BookBard wrote: ↑October 4th, 2022, 8:27 amHi, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to read sections 17 and 18.

You're marked as ready for spot PL.
PL for Section 12:
You now have 19 seconds of silence at the start
11:07 loud bump/smack at “more” in “she should do much more”.
31:52 phrase is fine now , but you repeat the word “meaning”
32:39 at the end you repeat “lost in the vastness of his meaning” (very quietly)
Missing “End of Section 12” and the 5s silence.
Nearly there!

Section 12 PL:
Almost! Just the silence at the end now. It should be 5 seconds. You have about 3 at the moment, and quite fuzzy. Can you de-amplify and add 2 seconds?
