That's awesome! Thank you, Jim! Delightful reading!

At 1:15, you cut out the pa- (paragraph). If this is a delivery choice, it's fine (it's quite creative and it works nicely), but I'm mentioning it just in case it was not intentional.

Then two edits needed. At the very beginning, please shorten the silence to 1 second.
And at the end, please add "End of Chapter 6", leaving the 5 seconds silence after it.
Thanks! :D

File-naming tip: In projects with 10 sections and more, ## in the filename means double digit (in project with 100 sections and more, it would be three digits ###) so when you upload again, you can use the filename burglarsclub_06_hering_128kb :wink:

Done, done, and done. Here is the new upload link:

Thank you for your kind words! Yes, the "para---" was done deliberately to sound as if the character were searching his desktop for the clipping. I'm glad it is OK.

If Chapter 5 is still open, I volunteer to read it. I promise to finish it a LOT faster than this one!

Here's my recording of Chapter 3! It didn't have the happy ending the author seemed to think it did, but definitely an interesting read. :)

Thank you, Jim! :D

I have just one point for you to check, around 3:12 it sounds like an overlap (That is why, on April 4th last, ). If you still have your working audacity file, maybe there's a second track there that you could remove.

What a story! For a long while I felt horror at what was happening. I'm glad it had the usual clever ending. And awesome reading :thumbs:
