Chapters 26, 38 and 40 are PL OK! :clap: I especially like the shocking drama and scandal of Chapter 40! ;) Very dramatic - appropriate for a dramatic reading! :mrgreen:

If it's scandal you're waiting for, the really salacious gossip has now arrived -- and village tongues are wagging!

Chapter 46 -- (3:47) -- https://librivox.org/uploads/m8b1/wivesanddaughtersdr_46_missphoebe.mp3
Chapter 47 -- (6:45) -- https://librivox.org/uploads/m8b1/wivesanddaughtersdr_47_missphoebe.mp3
Chapter 49 -- (1:03) -- https://librivox.org/uploads/m8b1/wivesanddaughtersdr_49_missphoebe.mp3

Miss Phoebe hereupon concludes her performance and exits stage left ... or is that stage right? ... Ah, well, one way or the other, Miss Phoebe is perpetually confused ...

Chapters 4 and 26 look like you have only done the first line. Each has several more lines for Mrs Goodenough - please make sure you scroll to the bottom of the chapter each time, or else search on the name to bring up all the places it appears.
There is the sound of a car horn beeping in the background during the first sentence, and a few loud pops during the reading - sounds like you are too close to the microphone. This is only a short paragraph, so perhaps you could read it again? :help:

(Also, you don't need to do a voice credit each time - just the character name and chapter number is enough to identify the file, thanks.)

:oops: I'm sorry...I did record these sometime back and thought I had it all covered. So, I uploaded them yesterday. But it does seem like all is not well. I will re-record all and post back here. Apologies -- this looks like sloppy work and I don't do that. :(

Could I get help in deleting these files from the server? Or should I just wait to upload again and then the new files will be in place?

Oh, don't worry too much, it happens pretty often - I did exactly the same thing with my first DR role! :lol:

Don't worry about it. If you name the new files the same as the old ones when you upload the new ones will just over-write the old ones and my links in the MW will still work! :thumbs:

Getting paid is always good! Is this audio booking or singing or something else?

Audio booking :-) I took the summer off from stage work for a breather and I still was so incredibly busy it was ridiculous...and that's carried over to fall and winter, yikes!

Will get fixes in soon.

Alright, here is Mrs. Hamley for chapters 4 & 5.
Let me know if you think the voice will work, Beth--I can always change it if needed. :)
