Thanks! I'll just read under my name - Cory Sampson.
Quick question: is there any particular accent the recording should be done in? I'm not sure what convention dictates.

you can read in your natural accent, there are no specific requirements

I tried it in my natural accent; it sounded funny. Tried it in something closer to an RP accent, and that, I think, sounded better. Let me know if I need to tweak something; I'm still new at this. If the accent doesn't work for you, I can re-record.

Section 2 PL notes
There are only a few small issues with Section 2;
there are almost 4 seconds of silence before the recording,
there is no, "end of chapter" and seven seconds of silence at the end of the recording.
The rest of the reading of the recording is excellent, great inflection of the characters voices!
