I listened to the revised version of Chapter 8, run time 20:53, and it is ready to be marked as "PL OK".

I listened to the revised version of Chapter 19 (run time 17:42) read by Simona Perego (sperego). The ending silent space is 3 seconds (less than 5 seconds), following "End of Chapter 19". Otherwise, I would say it is ready to be marked as "PL OK".

Hi, Klopez2012! Welcome to LibriVox! :)

You’re wanting to record Chapter 12, correct? If so, that would be be great! Thank you! I’ll sign you up.

Before you do any recording for LibriVox, you'll need to get a 1-Minute Test OK'ed. (Here are the instructions: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/1-Minute_Test ) When your test is ready, you'll post the link to it in the Listeners & Editors Wanted forum. If you have any questions, let me know!

Also, what would you like your catalog name to be? That's the part where you say, "Recording by..." It can be your real name, your forum name, or something different. Just know that it can't be changed because that's what gets read into the audio files. Also, if you'd like a link to a personal website or blog to be included on your catalog page, just let me know.

Oops, I forgot. Tricia, could you change the subject line of the post in Listeners and Editors Wanted so that it reads “Listeners FOUND”?

Done - and un-stickied it, so it'll drift to the bottom of the thread list and eventually get deleted. :)

Thank you very much!

Hey, the stream idea is very cool! :) I've often thought to myself it would be neat to see videos of LibriVoxers in action making their recordings. I couldn’t get any sound to work on these... :hmm: but still an impressive screen layout!

PL notes for Chapter 6:

@ 33:43: Please add 5 seconds of silence at the end.

@ 33:31-42 Extra words need to be removed: "Recording by Ares. If you like my recording you can ... Thank you." (Instead, you could say "YouTube Channel: Ares Reads" or "YouTube Channel: A-R-E-S Reads" here, but no other comments. :) )

@ 0:25-37 Extra words need to be removed: "please visit: librivox DOT org. Recording by Ares. If you like my recording you can ... Thank you. Bonnie Prince Fetlar: The Story..."

Great job, Ares! I like that you read on the slow side. If you had read quickly, my ears are so accustomed to American/Canadian/English accents that I may have had trouble understanding. Oh, and I checked out your YouTube streams again and this time I got the sound to work (I don't know what I was doing wrong earlier :oops: ). I really like them! What a cool idea!
