Yes, I noticed that when I started looking at other readers' posts. My apologies. If it helps, Section 6 (The First Winter) is 5:23, and Section 17 (The Pine Tree Maiden) is 7:08.

Please let me know if anything needs to be edited or done differently. Thank you!
First, I have to say, I love your username here. :D

Here are my notes for the two sections.

6: Please remove around 1 second of silence at the start and at the end. It should be between 0.5 and 1.0 seconds at the start and around 5 seconds at the end. Those are the only required changes for this section. The following notes are informational only. Your volume is a little on the high side but is still acceptable. It ideally would be around 2 dB lower. There are also some strange noises cropping up in the recording. No need to remove, just something to look out for when editing in the future. Some examples occur at 0:11-0:14 and 3:12.

17: One small change requested here. You have some long silences between the paragraphs but most are consistent. The only one that doesn't fit is at 4:50. If you could shorten that one by about 1 second to place it in line with the others, the recording would be PL OK.

You did a nice job with the recordings. The only concerns are with the lengths of some of the silences. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

M

Section 16 only requires a couple of easy fixes to make it PL OK.
1: 0:20 - please remove the rough sound between "of" and "winter". Please also remove around 1 second of silence at the end of the recording, it should be around 5 seconds.

It was very nicely read.

I am still working on section 15 but wanted to get this one to you.

Thanks,

M

Welcome to Librivox! These 4 sections are yours! I see you've already completed a one-minute test, so please just let me know what name you would like to be credited under in the catalog. It can be your real name, your forum name, or something else of your liking.
Thanks. Lilian Abirika is fine.
Awesome, thank you!

Thank you! It echoes my real-life job. :)

I have reloaded the corrected Section 6 (The First Winter) file:


https://librivox.org/uploads/leni/pearlstorybook_06_skinner_128kb.mp3

The time on it is now 5:21.
17: One small change requested here. You have some long silences between the paragraphs but most are consistent. The only one that doesn't fit is at 4:50. If you could shorten that one by about 1 second to place it in line with the others, the recording would be PL OK.
I will go ahead and change that one over-long silence. Would you like me to trim down the rest of the silences as well, since I'm editing, or should I just leave well enough alone?
You did a nice job with the recordings. The only concerns are with the lengths of some of the silences.
Thank you. I'll keep an eye on reading pace in the future.

I have uploaded the Snow Man. Printed off the story and read it away from my computer. Let me know if the noise you heard previously is still there.
