I only mention this in case you forgot about it. Some BCs like it, others don’t care and I can’t remember your preference.

I didn’t see in the first post where you wanted designated spacing (3-5 seconds) between poems.
Hi linny, sorry i forgot to post about this one. I like to leave freedom to the reader to choose how they like to read it. I personally think it sounds better when there is a bit of space, but if a reader pfefers otherwise thats also fine :) thank you!

forgot to mention....I got translations of the French..... for the 8 or ten quotes.....I could add a note if necessary about that......or we could find someone to read the original in the text as written. ;>)

Oooh yes thats a problem. We need the text to be read just as written, in french if it is printed that way. You can either read the french to the best of your ability or get another reader to read the passages and paste them into your recording :)

I'm sure there are a ton of site. Here is the one I use. I like that I can get a single word or the entire phrase. https://translate.google.com/

So, section 1 is currently not ready for PL. Is that correct?

Great job! I really enjoy your pacing.

16:51 – repeat – “’Why do you shine?’ said the frog.”

23:30 - repeat - "He was not one of those convenient single people who are used, as we use straw and cotton in packing,

I don’t know French. I did follow along with the text and it sounds fine to me but unfortunately, that’s likely not saying much. Carolin, if you know French the section is 19:19 - 21:03.
