I bet Peggy wonders what Charlotte is writing to others about her!

Here are the things I heard:
0:13 missing word "but"
0:23 should be "from" instead of "for"
0:24 should be "unaccountable" instead of "accountable"
0:49 remove the word "that"
1:07 should be "a" instead of "the"
1:13 missing the word "a" before "dozen"
1:30 missing the word "so"
1:31 remove the word "in" before the word "both"
1:31 add the word "in" before the word "Health"
1:37 add the word "the" before "Bristol"
1:47 missing the word "me"
2:53 missing the word "may"
3:30 remove the word "particularly" before the word "violent"
3:35 should be "in" instead of "into"
3:46 missing the words "as she"
7:22 should be "does not at all seem" instead of "does not seem at all"
7:44 add "the" before "superintending"

Voice ends at 8:11 and recording ends at 8:19

You are a good voice coach for me! I love developing my english accent along with your entertaining rendition.
Here are the things I heard Letter 7:
1:07 remove word "the" before "opinion"
1:50 add word "a" before "part"
2:20 remove the word "loved" before "drawing Pullets"
2:25 remove word "could" before "make a"
2:45 remove the word "been"
2:53 should be "fail" instead of "failed"
3:16 add word "a" before "twelvemonth"
3:33 remove word "the" before "more frequent"
4:16 add word "and" before "have very much"
4:59 add word "a" before "cream cheese"
5:53 switch order of "other" and "such"
6:00 should be "are" instead of "were"
6:27 - 6:33 = 6 seconds
6:50 remove "the" before "future"
7:07 remove "have" before "ever said"
7:26 remove "ever" before "had a greater affection"
7:44 should be "her" instead of "him"
7:44 remove word "for"
8:30 switch word "have" with "here"
9:29-9:33 = 4 seconds

I love the fragility in your voice; it seems, to me, very "on brand" with the character.

Hi ktaylor07! I thoroughly enjoyed your Letter 2 especially your most excellent accent and tone! Since this is word perfect checking, I have the following for you for Letter 2:
1:02 missing the "after"
1:06 missing the worde "by" before "Night"
2:32 remove the word "all"
2:56 should read "Lifeless" instead of "of lifelessness"
3:00 should be "chests" plural instead of singular
3:04 missing the phrase "I immediately .... her to herself again."
4:31 "Alacrity" instead of "a clarity"
4:54 "rouse" instead of "arouse"
5:09 please remove the word "so"
5:42 "or" instead of "for"
5:54 missing the word "for"
6:37 remove the word "and"
6:43 "the" instead of "a"
6:51 remove the word "to"
6:54 missing the word "a" before "high delerium"
7:20 "confidently" instead of "confidentially"
7:43 missing the word "at"
7:45 missing the word "very"
I am very much looking forward to the other letters you are dramatizing!
Here is the corrected version:

https://librivox.org/uploads/mightyfelix/lesleycastle_charlotte_letter2.mp3

Sorry I made so many little mistakes! But at least this did give me the chance to go back and re-record over some spots where I cracked up and got too giggle-y about Charlotte's "devouring plan" and her complete lack of concern about her prospective brother-in-law's demise. What a character!
You fixed all above so beautifully and seamlessly! What is your secret? I did find a few more very minute deviations:
0:50 missing word "that"
2:03 missing word "a"
2:25 missing word "Why"
3:28 should be "in" instead of "into"
4:38 missing word "a"
5:08 should be "your" instead of "you"
5:59 should be "sufferings" plural instead of singular
I apologize for not catching these the first time around.
Here's the corrected version. Hope this takes care of everything. I don't know that I have any particular secret for making edits -- I guess just lots of practice from making lots of mistakes!

Hi, there might be a delay in the submitting of my sections for this project as I currently have a bad cold which has made my voice very croaky. I get this often and it usually lasts a good two to three weeks before I can record again. I hope this is ok but if you would prefer to re-assign the sections I would fully understand.

Kelly, Jane Austen could not have cast a better voice for Charlotte Lutterell! Only two items on Letter 4:
at :41 missing word "often"
at 4:46 missing word "the"
I will post Letter 7 separately.
Thanks again for your contributions!

Hi Salvationist, Since this is a dramatization are we leaving out the "tenor and speaker cues" and, if not, who is to read those?
