Welcome! I'll create a reader file for you and put you in the MW. What name do you want to use for your voice credits and in the catalogue? Also, do you want a URL linked? I can do that to your profile - you are not allowed to link to a personal site in your signature (looks too much like advertising).
Is it okay to use my full name for the voice credit? I don't have a web site. If there is any other information you need for my profile, just let me know please.

Mrs Dawes looks like great fun - enjoy! Remember that you don't need the LV disclaimer or intro or outro for a dram read - just say "Mrs Dawes read by yourname" and then read the bits in bright green, as linked in the google docs in the Magic Window (the purple text links, just keep scrolling down). Please remember to use the filenames as given in the first post, as the uploader is very picky, and use the CHAPTER numbers (not your section number). A separate file for each chapter please.
Yes! The character does look like fun. I'm looking forward to getting the go-ahead to start reading. I've read through the character's lines already a couple of times. There was one line I noticed was highlighted in bright green for Mrs. Dawes, which per my reading of the text seemed like it might be a narrator's line. I'll look it look it up and get back to you for clarification, if that's okay?
Edit: This is the section:
Narrator: Miss Browning went to Mrs. Dawes' and began civilly enough to make inquiries concerning the reports current in Hollingford about Molly and Mr. Preston; and Mrs. Dawes fell into the snare, and told all the real and fictitious circumstances of the story in circulation, quite unaware of the storm that was gathering and ready to fall upon her as she stopped speaking. But she had not the long habit of reverence for Miss Browning which would have kept so many Hollingford ladies from justifying themselves if she found fault. Mrs. Dawes stood up for herself and her own veracity, bringing out fresh scandal, which she said
Mrs Dawes: she did not believe, but that many did;
Narrator: and adducing so much evidence as to the truth of what she had said and did believe, that Miss Browning was almost quelled, and sate silent and miserable at the end of Mrs. Dawes' justification of herself.
It seems to me that the narrator is relating an introductory summery of Mrs. Dawes reaction sort of in a setting the scene way, rather than it being an actual within the context line spoken by Mrs. Dawes. For instance, as Mrs. Dawes, I would not say "she" referring to myself.
Just want to make sure, though.
