I will MC this for you.
It sounds linteresting! I will PM you with instructions on using the MW.
I will keep your project on the launchpad for a few days for proof listeners to consider.
Have fun!

Thanks so much, Amy!! I really appreciate it. I'll get to work on the magic window tomorrow and keep you updated.
Hi Cate,
I added DaveC as DPL and moved you to Going Solo. The magic window looks great.
Cheers!

I'd be glad to start this off with the preface and chapter 1...but how do you pronounce Mizora?.. I "googled" it but came up with half a dozen different pronunciations! Also I'm very new at this so if you prefer to have a more experienced reader just say so.....no offense taken!
Hi MJ,
I would say Miz' orr uh. It can vary among us although. I don't think any listeners will be confused by variation so don't worry.
Thank you for starting off!
