IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

OK, your MW is ready for you! We will wait here a day or two to see if we can pick a DPL, unless you have someone in mind already.

Hi Ann, thanks!
I added the necessary stuff to the MW and had to increase the number of sections after looking at word counts in each story. I'll start recording once I've finished one more commitment. Maybe we'll have lured a DPL by then.

Just started listening. I think it is a perfect speed for a futuristic story so as to catch all the "world building" features.
