Thank you, Mark! So here's your Reader Page in the catalogue: https://librivox.org/reader/16351 which you can also access through your name-link in the magic window. It lists the projects you read for, and can also help you keep track of your sections in ongoing projects under the Reader Section Details link.
Here is the link to my test file:

Great! Just one thing to fix, the bit rate. If you are using Audacity, you can set that when exporting as mp3. Check the format options in the Export Window, and choose "Constant" for Bit Rate Mode, and "128 kbps" for Quality. Then click Save to export and Audacity should keep these settings for all future exports.
Please try one more, to make sure that it works!
By the way, your volume is a bit on the low end, so try not to go any softer, but otherwise you have amazing sound quality! If you'd like, you could use the Checker to measure the volume of your mp3s in decibels, and adjust if necessary by amplifying/de-amplifying. Target volume is 89dB, and anything between 86-92 should be good. Or you can just assess visually in Audacity, when the wavetrack peaks above the 0.5 mark (but not all the way up/down to avoid clipping), like so:
Please ask if anything is unclear
