Thank you, Aabha! This is PL OK :thumbs:

Be careful not to let your ending silence run too long. It should be 5 seconds. :)

Thanks for helping!

Thank you and I'll be sure to keep that in mind for the 6th chapter.

It’s not essential to be absolutely accurate. Less than 5 seconds, some players cut off the end; too long and listeners will think something has gone wrong. It was decided many years ago that 5 seconds is about right (we used to have 10 seconds for sections over 30 minutes long…)

Chapter 6 - 17min 55sec - Aabha

https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/fatalmessage_06_carter_128kb.mp3

I'm so sorry for the delay! I'm still getting the hang of recording and the kind of environment it needs, so it needed a bit of time to get right. Again, I'm so sorry for being the last one to post the file.

Also, Audacity is showing the duration of the as 17:56 but when I open it in browser, it is showing it as 17:55. What do I take as the right time?

Thank you. Yes, there is quite a steep learning curve for most of us. It does get easier.
As for the time, such a small discrepancy is immaterial. If it was 17:56 or 7:56, that’s a different matter 8-)

Section 6 is queued :)

Lynne, I got a TON of PL files in yesterday - if I can't get through everything today, this will get hit tomorrow.

Hi, Aabha!

There is only one spot on this chapter that needs some editing.

at 11:01, an electronic-sounding scratchiness makes it so I can't understand the beginning of this sentence:

Patsy ended his levity and drew up in his chair.
