Hi Nick! Thank you for your incredibly recited poem! :clap: Everything is great except that the volume would need about 9-10 dB amplification.
Do you have a way to check volume and adjust as needed?

When you're ready to re-export, check the filename; make it with no space between spc and 218, and mp3 is not needed because Audacity adds it. :thumbs:

Hi Rapunzelina, try this.

Sorry for the errors!

Away for the rest of the month, so I think I'll have just this one short poem for this month:

Absence by Francis Neilson (1867 – 1961)
https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/65842
1:07
https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/spc218_absence_lcw_128kb.mp3

I think this author is not in the LV catalog, so here is the wiki link for him:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Neilson

ETA: Ah, found the other little poem I was looking for:

If You Should Cease to Love Me by Corrine Roosevelt Robinson (1861 – 1933)
https://archive.org/details/anthologymagazi02braigoog/page/n6/mode/2up
1:58
https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/spc218_ceasetoloveme_lcw_128kb.mp3

I don't find her in the LV catalog either, so here is her link and a short blurb for your interest:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corinne_Roosevelt_Robinson

"Corinne Roosevelt was an American poet, writer and lecturer. She was also the younger sister of former President of the United States Theodore Roosevelt and an aunt of future First Lady of the United States, Eleanor Roosevelt"
