I found that name of a German play rather channelling (Oberammergau). I must have rerecorded that line 10 times.

When you get the time, please send me a copy of any unclaimed section.

Thank you ~ I will proof listen it later today.

Any particular section you would prefer to see? Picking for people is not my favorite thing!

[Kingsnake]

Must've missed that. Shall I cut that out and reupload?

Yes, please!

Okay, it's back up. Let me know if further changes are needed.

Fair enough. In that case, could you send me a copy of section 15?

If you need me to change anything, please let me know. I am practicing to audition to narrate audiobooks, so any constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!

Thank you! There is one thing to be fixed. @0:23 you got part of the intro a little mixed up. You put "Section 41" at the start of the section that should go like this: "G.K. Chesterton's Newspaper Columns: The New Witness - 1922, by G. K. Chesterton. Section 41".

As for constructive criticism, I would recommend leaving a little bit more time between sentences. Also, watch out for loud breaths. You don't want to take the breathing away, as then you might sound dead , but perhaps deamplfying some of the breaths, or watching out for where you are taking breaths might help.

I hope that helps! You have a lovely voice and did a very nice job! I would just watch out on the pacing/timing, etc.

So sorry! Just saw this. I will rerecord the whole thing today. Nothing like feedback and revision to get better!

Hi Stacy,

No need to re-record the entire thing! Just the intro mixup needs to be fixed! The rest I only gave for future reference because you asked for constructive criticism.

No, I wanted to and already did it. Seriously, I'm trying to listen to myself and improve and record something every day. Do let me know if this one sounds better. And thank you again for the feedback. I'll take more if you have it!

Thank you, Arden ~ it is PL OK!

I would suggest to watch the pacing between sentences, so that it easy to tell what is the beginning and end of a sentence. I hope that helps!

I've put your name in the section to hold it for you until you decide if you want to do it or not.

I'll take it. I'll start today. Hopefully won't take me too long to finish. Thanks for holding.
