Yes, of course. Thank you for taking part!

Should you have difficulty with any of the pronunciations, my motto is to do the best you can ... and that is more than enough.

It could be that you'll be able to assist us with pronunciations!

Kevin, (also ATTN: Chad and Stefan)

Our usual ending for the short poetry disclaimer is just, "End of poem. This recording is in the public domain." If you want the name of the poem repeated again, that's fine (though I think it adds to the non-poem part of the recording), however, I think we actually do need to have "This recording is in the public domain" in there as part of the disclaimer.

Tricia will correct me if I'm wrong about this.

In the meanwhile, I've marked all of the submitted sections with See PL Notes.

Just one other small note for you, Kevin. I hear background noise, certainly at an acceptable level, in your intros and outros, but not in the bod of the recordings, as if you applied noise reduction only to that part. Entirely up to you if you want to take a listen and make any changes. They are PL OK as is.
On the road again, so delays are possible

Thank you. All very helpful. I will adjust the ending instructions to simply "End of poem. This recording is in the public domain."

It's a bad habit I have to break. I like to think about the poetry alone when recording and worry about the intro and outro much later. It leads to what you describe.

I'll clean them up.

LibriVox member Aidan is presently arranging to read a good number of these poems as part of a school project. Many thanks to him! He's reserving 130 - 143.

Hi, Kevin!

Okay, on the outro, as long as we have the "public domain" in there, I think

Chad and Stefan --- would you mind changing the outros for the poems already submitted? They are otherwise PL OK.
