Jenn,
You did a wonderful job with Betty!

I'm getting excited about starting the editing.

A few minor corrections in three chapters.

Chapter 9
1:25 - Missing line – bottom of page 17 - BETTY LEVERETT: "Oh, if 'Lecty was ill—but you know, Aunt Priscilla, they keep a man beside the girl, and it seems to me she is always having a nurse when the children are ailing, or a woman in to sew, or some extra help. She doesn't need Betty, and it seems as if I did."

Chapter13
2:45 word cut off – Oh the frock

Chapter20
2:35 word change - "Poor father! He did not suppose we would have such hard times. If the war would only end. You see,"
I hear sing

Welcome back to LV!

Thank you for the claim.

Please remember to leave ~5 seconds of space between you character lines.

Hi Linny,
Thank you! I’ve had a lot of fun with her part and can’t wait to hear it all put together!

This was one of the lines I wasn’t sure belonged to Betty. Do you want me to record it anyway?

linny · Post by **linny** » February 17th, 2020, 4:07 pm

I’m sorry, Jenn. No, that one belongs to Mrs. Leverett

There are three chapters ready to edit. Once I have them up I will post an ad for PL.

Thank you, Kevin. A few corrections needed for this one.

0:16 – Missing text – Chapter 6, A Birthday Party.

2:34 – word change - Mrs. Morse had finished her sewing and folded it, quilting her needle back and forth, putting her thimble and spool of cotton inside and slipping it in her work bag. Then she rose and wrapped her shawl about her and tied on her hood.
I hear spoon

9:21 – word change - Aunt Priscilla came over and had her cup of tea so she could get back before dark. She was still afraid of the damp night air. Aunt Priscilla had a trunk full of pretty things she had worn in her early married life. If she, Betty, could be allowed to "rummage" through it!
I hear plenty

linny, I'm being told on my Reader's Board (or whatever it is called) that I have corrections to make for this project. (Chapter/Section 4? and not my most recent. Thank you for those corrections.) Would you mind checking on this? I think I'm caught up.

Also, which chapter shall I do next?

Kevin,
On the Reader Section Details in your catalog page you will see Section 6 listed as ready for PL. This is the chapter I just edited and it's waiting for a final chapter PL. All of your narrator chapters are contained in section 4. It is listed as See PL notes. If you look at the section you will see that corrections are needed for chapters 1 and 6.

I'm not a fan for the MW setup for the project but it was too much to change when I took over.

Hello Kevin,
Sorry for the delayed PL. I'm not sure where yesterday went.

Really good job on chapter 1. There are a couple of editing errors and then a problem I created.

0:18 missing text (This one is my fault. I forgot to remind you.) - cast list. narrated by [your voice credit]. Additional parts read by:.

3:34 repeat - Priscilla would have enjoyed a little foolish love-making, and she had a carnal hankering for fine gowns; and, oh, how she did long to dance in her youth, when she was slim and light-footed!

9:04 repeat - The Lincolnshire ladies were too old to have the care and rearing of a child, so Mr. Winthrop Adams had sent by Captain Grier to bring over the little girl.

When you have the time, chapter 7 would be most useful.

Fix for six!
