This is a reprise of the footnote conversation (sorry!).

One thing I wasn't clear on - Do you want the footnote number read out as it appears within the text. i.e. "text text text text "footnote #" text text text"? Or just skipping entirely?

I wasn't intending to read the footnote itself within the text, as 1/ it would make it so tricky to go locate the footnote then return to the main text without it completely disrupting the flow of the narration, 2/ it's not presented that way in the book and 3/ I always figure that, while sometimes interesting, if the info contained in the footnote was vitally important, it would be in the main text in the first place!

But will the footnotes be narrated at the end, and should I be mentioning the numbers as I come to them in the text?

Hope that makes sense!

Thanks

Carod

Thanks for clarifying, Carod ! There's no need to add in the footnotes, especially if adding them in would be a pain to do. I hope this cleared things up

Here's my reading of chapter 11. Amazing how modern ghost hunters aren't too different, and also I saw similarities between the descriptions of the wild hauntings and scenes from the old Hammer film "Quatermass and the Pit"! FUN!

Hi there,
I checked everything and the settings are correct and on my computer the file is the correct size. I am not sure why but in the uploader it changes size. I am including a drop box link to the screen shot. I am also including a drop box link to the audio file. If any one has a solution I will gladly try it. Otherwise, I will delete the old files and record again. Anyhow, I will submit it by the end of the weekend.

Screencapture: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8kmi0f1nbn1oe82/Screen%20Shot%202022-04-27%20at%205.28.24%20PM.png?dl=0

Best,

Hi, Bittonbailey! Sorry for the late response. Overall, Great work on the chapter! There are just a couple issues that, if you could resolve, would be great.
-(minor, isn't necessary to fix) An "Astral Body" Short story isn't named (10:40)
-Between the times of 33:36 and 33:44, there's complete silence in the middle of a sentence

Again, Great work
