This looks like the first things you are recording. I will reserve those sections to you but first I would like to know how you would like to appear in the catalog with your recordings. You can use your real name, your username, etc. If you have a personal webpage you would like to appear in the catalog, you can supply that also.
Sure - you can use my real name: Danielle Wolff

Thanks!
Thanks - all taken care of,

Looks like I should not edit at 2an! I gave one too much of a haircut and pasted extra into the other poem recording!

Here they are back optimized :)

Since you were so fast with your recordings I tried to be quick with the response.

The poems were all beautifully read. My only comments is regarding the length of the silence at the beginning and the end. All three need about 0.5 seconds removed from the start. (should be 0.5-1.0 seconds of silence at the start.)

Number 73 needs also about 2 seconds of silence removed at the end. (should be around 5 seconds of silence at the end.)

So, just cut a little bit of time and upload again using the same filename and providing the new length. Let us know if you need any assistance with this.

My congratulations on such a good start with Librivox. Look forward to hearing more from you.

Thanks,

M

Well, they all uploaded just fine. And such a prompt upload gets a prompt PL OK for all 5 poems. :thumbs:

One comment, for what it is worth, in #48 your name sounded like Lori to me rather than Larry. It could be my faulty ears but you can either check or not and change or not since the reading was perfectly grand as it was.

Thanks much,

OK, I trimmed and uploaded again. Think I got it right this time, but let me know if there's a problem.

Thanks!

Great reading. You are PL OK. One caution though - your silences at the start and finish are a little on the long side - There should be 0.5-1.0 seconds at the start and ~5.0 seconds at the end.

Thanks,
