Hey, welcome to LibriVox! We're so glad you joined!
I did a little digging in the uploads folder and was able to find your test.
Next time could you please link to your recordings? It saves volunteers a little time.

You have a nice, clear voice, enjoyable to the listener. There are a couple of tech specs that need to be fixed, but it's not hard.
~The bit rate should be 128 kbps. If you're using Audacity, go to File>Export>Export as MP3 and under "Format Options" change the quality to 128kbps.
~The recording should use a constant bit rate. In Audacity, go to File>Export>Export as MP3 and under Bit Rate Mode select Constant.
Once you've done that, reupload and post a link back here.

All better! You're PL OK and ready to start recording.
Go ahead and find a project you like and jump in! I recommend starting small at first just so you get a taste for it, and then you can go bigger if you like. Have fun!

I like your scripture verse, by the way!

No problem! Glad I could help!
And thank you. It's my favorite Bible verse
