question - at the end of Section 1 the author quoted a poem (Northward Bound) which I did not include in my reading. Was I supposed to include this? If so, no problem..I can resubmit.

- Tim
Yes, please include it. Resubmit with the same file name and new time.
Thank you.

The reading is great, but it is incomplete. The recording needs to continue with, “Whilst writing what I have already said about stalking...” and finish with the reading of the Northward Bound poem.
Thanks for the feedback!

Spot PL Note for Section 1

Tim, I'm not sure if you're reading a different copy than what's cited, but the first stanza of the "Northward Bound" poem is currently jumbled up. You have all the lines, however in different order. Your reading of that stanza starts at 5:10. The copy we are utilizing is as follows:

“Does your heart still beat with the old excitement
As you wait where the Scotch expresses are?
Does it answer still to the old indictment
Of a fond delight in the sleeping-car,
As it did when the rush through the autumn night meant
The Gate of Desire ajar?”

Also, the cited source at the end doesn't need to be read and can be removed.
"I've always talked to myself, now I just hit record beforehand..."

Wow. I'm not even sure how that happened but I corrected it. I can only imaging your confused look while listening...lol. It must've been a copy/paste error entered into my text program. But my apologies.
Here's the edited version and new time:

Hi and welcome to Librivox!
There are a few things to do before you get started.
You will need to complete a one minute test - this is to check your specs are up to Librivox standards, and if not, you'll be given hints on how to remedy that. http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/1-Minute_Test
Please post your test in the Listeners Wanted forum (see the dropdown at the bottom of the page) for the speediest response. Waiting for the OK may seem tedious, but can save time in the long run.
You will also need to be added to the catalog of readers. I will add you using your forum name, but if you prefer your real name or a pseudonym let me know. We can also link to a personal blog or website. Be sure to read the first post - all the info you need is there, but if anything doesn't make sense, just ask. The wiki (see the top of the page) has bundles of info too.

Hi again, I submitted my 1 minute test in Listener's Wanted forum, received feedback, and sent amplified version. I will let you know, but I'll get started on recording and editing chapter 7 while I wait.

I may give you a link to personal bio page soon. :D

Best, Curtis

If it was just a volume issue, you should be fine to proceed :thumbs:
