Hi Todd,
Please explain what the red means concerning my recording. The red and the dot!
Thanks,

Red is not usually good, but when I load your file into Audacity there is no red or dot. I see that you are not using Audacity (you're on a MacBook Pro using TwistedWave from a Blue Yeti USB?) so I really don't know how to help.

Can anyone else here help?

Thanks, Todd

Nicely done. My most current image of that play is the Wishbone version, and I think their performance may have left your monologue out....

Two minor things:

First, once you have said "This recording is in the public domain" the first time, you are done. On short projects such as this, you don't then add also the normal "This is a Librivox recording. All Librivox recordings are in the public domain. For more information..." Please remove the extra stuff

Second, file names can't have capital letters, so please upload when fixed using "mf" instead of "MF" in the name.

Thanks, Todd
