Section 45 PL Note:

Everything is great, except at the very end you said "End of the Lost Knife". It should be "End of Section 45". If you could fix that and reupload, that would be great!

Along with the others orphaned the other day, Section 39 has also been opened up for anyone to claim!

Sections 12, 13, and 15 are all short, so I'm happy to take those on, too.

Thanks,
Marcia

Hi Laura,

Welcome to LibriVox! Section 39 is all yours! Please read the first post of this thread carefully.

Please let me know under which name or pseudonym you'd like to appear in the LibriVox catalogue. We can also link to a personal web site/blog.

Also, since this is your first recording, we ask that you send in a 1-minute test recording. This is not an audition, it's just to make sure the sound quality and the recording settings are all right - often things can be improved at the outset that are difficult to fix later. Please go to https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=1-Minute_Test to find out what to record for your 1-minute test, and how to upload the recording. In the LibriVox Uploader, please select 'tests - tests' from the MC drop-down, and then post your test recording in the Listeners Wanted forum, rather than in this thread - you'll get feedback more quickly there.

Thanks and have fun!

Thank you, Brenda! Lovely job!

There are a few things that need to be fixed.

At the very beginning you have over 8 seconds of silence ~ there should be no more than one.
@:43 seconds there is a 5 second pause between the title and the start of the story. I would suggest cutting that down just a bit, perhaps to no more than two or three seconds.

Also, the volume is a little on the quiet side. If you could amplify it a little bit, that would be great!
