I'll see what I can do about helping to get this project finished up. I'm not able to volunteer to complete editing myself (I have more editing lined up than I can handle currently), but I will try to find an editor for act 2. And it looks like we do still need one audio file from ambsweet, but unless I'm missing something, it is only one line. I think I should be able to impersonate her for long enough to speak that much. It won't be a great impression, I'm sure, but hopefully will not be noticeable, as the character doesn't seem to have much to say.
Devorah,
I am so embarrassed . I don't know why I didn't SpotPL the first section of Act 1. I should have that done tonight, I hope, or tomorrow at the latest.

Don't worry about overstepping! I listened to sections of the Act but did not listen to the whole thing all the way through so if you can catch some long pauses/gaps that would be great. I took most of your suggestions and cut some of the pauses significantly. The stop stage directions were kind of unnecessary so I cut those and just had the next line come in faster. I kept the "pause" direction so that I could have a bigger gap between lines without sounding like dead air. I imagine facial expression/ movements on stage that we can't see in a recording

No worries. I just changed the status of that section tonight. And it took me some combing through the thread to realize that it had been corrected. I think it's because, right as those corrections were posted, I derailed us into a discussion on how to split acts. I don't doubt that's probably how you missed it too, so it's no fault of yours.
Yes. But I'm betting that an editor wouldn't mind doing that as they are assembling the file. (I mean, they kind of have to.) And I've specified in my advertisement that it still needs to be done, and that you are available for corrections if needed.
Happy to jump in as editor if you would like me to. I can't record at the moment due to a croaky voice so got more time on my hands.

Oh thank you, that would be lovely Michele! I'll try to get that missing line in tonight.
EDIT: Are you planning to edit both remaining acts, or should I still be on the lookout for one more editor?
Am happy to complete any editing needed thanks

Lines were all correct . There were two things that I would usually point out. There is a lot of 'crowd' noise in between lines, but the lines sound fine, and the volume is 91.7, but I understand that can be corrected in editing, if that is OK.
Because of everything, I will PLOK this. If I am in error, just let me know.

Crowd noise? I'll admit that I did turn this one out in a hurry. And I probably wasn't as careful as I usually am in turning off the A/C, waiting for loud trucks to go away, etc. But there certainly wasn't a crowd in my house when I was recording!
But if the lines themselves are noise free, then I'm satisfied.
