Could I request Chapter 11? Maybe people wanted to avoid being bankrupt. Jokes aside, I am a newbie who just passed my 1 minute test. I will do my best.

All yours! Please let me know what name you would like to use for your catalog page. It can be your real name, forum name, or a pseudonym ~ whatever you prefer!

Thanks, and have fun!

OK, progress so far. I have recorded all of chapter 11. It came to about 15 minutes. I have to do some audio clean ups. In a few days I will probably upload. I could say a lot of things. It was a fun passage to record and read. There was one point when it was obvious that the text was wrong. But I am going to read the text exactly as it is regardless. If the PL wants me to change that word then I will.

Hi,

What part of the text do you think is wrong, and I'll have a look at it! It could be a transcriber error, and we can check it against an actual scan. :-)

Near the end. At this bit:

"Worse than spooks—when they get in your hair," spoke Mollie. "Give me a nice clean ghost, that waltzes around in a two-step. Oh, girls, I hope we can go to a dance of two on our tour."

Surely the above should say "dance or two". In the context "dance of two" makes no sense that I can see.

By the way I use Calibre to open up the text and read from it.

Yes, that is likely a typo. Go ahead and make it "or". :-)
