Here's Rebecca chapter 6 ready for PL:

Like chapter 5, I've amplified by 6.012 and hopefully my 'baste like a house afire!' section isn't too loud.

Thanks,
~JayKitty

In chapter 19 the text said I (as Rebecca) was supposed to sing a paragraph of song. However, I am not provided with any links to the melody, so should I just say the words with no melody, in a regular speaking tone?
Thanks,
~JayKitty

It's up to you.

Sometimes readers will make up their own little tune, but that's definitely something that wouldn't be easy for me to do. If that's the case for you, then you can just speak them.

I forgot to follow along with the media while the song was playing, but hopefully it's the right tempo. If it isn't, I'll rerecord.
Thanks,
~JayKitty

Yes, please re-record it while listening to the song with headphones/earbuds. Sorry about that!

Hi.

Can I do Delia Weeks (4) if still free?

This would be my first dram reading - is there any guidelines on reading for one anywhere? I assume Delia is in chapter 7 and 26, and I record a seperate file for each chapter.

Thanks, Alice

Ok, no problem- sorry about that! I'll rerecord it and send that bit today.

Hi Alice,
Welcome to the dramatic works section of LibriVox! Here is a link from the wiki to get you started:

https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Dramatic_Readings_and_Plays

Just to clarify, you do record separate files for each chapter.
Hope this helps,
~JayKitty

Alice,
More specifically, here's another link as well (it's another guide to your first role in a play).

https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Dramatic_Readings_and_Plays#Step_By_Step-_Your_first_role_in_a_Play

You can find other stuff in the LibriVox wiki (it's called Guides for Listeners and Volunteers [LibriVox wiki]).
Here it is:

I hope you have fun!
~JayKitty

Well, I'll see what I can do. I'd prefer to make up a tune, but if I can't, I'll just speak them. Thanks!

Here's the song bit (Shall we gather at the river)- I sang it with the track. I changed the original chapter 5 filename to rebecca_05_rebecca(original) but I can always change it back, flipping both titles vice versa if needed. Thanks!

Here's Rebecca chapter 8 ready for PL:

https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/rebecca_08_rebecca.mp3

Just a note: I always noise clean and amplify to some extent in all of my files. This time, I've amplified by 3.155 since some of my ejaculations in the text are a bit loud already.
Thanks,
~JayKitty
