In the catalog, we'd like to be listed as Blair DM. Thank you, and we can't wait to get started!ColleenMc wrote: ↑December 11th, 2020, 2:43 pmHello and welcome!
Are you more than one person sharing an account? I'm curious about the "we"
As this will be your first recording for Librivox, please have a look at the Newbie Guide to Recording at: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Newbie_Guide_to_Recording and also read carefully through all the notes in the first post of this thread if you haven't already done so.
Even if you are experienced with recording elsewhere, please send in a short test recording to check that all the technical settings meet LibriVox requirements before recording a full chapter.
1-minute test https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/1-Minute_Test
We also need to know by what name you would like to be listed in the catalog. This can be the same as your forum name, your real name or another pseudonym of your choice. If you have a personal website, that can be linked as well.
I will put a hold on the chapters you requested, pending the completion of your 1-minute test.
Thanks and welcome to Librivox.![]()
Hi!
Thanks for clarifying. We have had group accounts before at LibriVox, but this is a first for me!
I saw the one minute test. Once sjmarky has reviewed the updated recording,I can officially assign the sections and you can get going.
Coincidentally we just had another new group account join up very recently, I encourage you to take a look at this thread here,
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=84296&p=1822971&hilit=Shared+account#p1822971
especially Availle’s response as she had some suggestions and caveats for group accounts which would be good for you guys to consider as well.

Jo and Colleen. Nathan Fry is my son, and wanted me to let you know he is interested in participating, but having a devil of a time signing in to Librivox. Yesterday, with advice from Tricia which I conveyed to him, he managed to sign in successfully (by taking the dot out of his gmail email address). This morning, using the same credentials, again he could not get in. He is unable to reset his password at this time. Have you any advice for him? I wonder if he could negate his membership and start over, using the same username and a new password. Any advice is appreciated, which I will convey to him, or you could email him directly.NathanPFry wrote: ↑December 7th, 2020, 5:43 amknotyouraveragejo wrote: ↑December 4th, 2020, 8:48 pmHi Nathan,NathanPFry wrote: ↑December 3rd, 2020, 1:44 pmHi, Colleen, I'm happy to read any of the first four chapters.

You can choose whichever chapters you would like to read. For now, I've assigned you chapter 1.Meanwhile as this will be your first recording for Librivox, please have a look at the Newbie Guide to Recording and also read carefully through all the notes in the first post of this thread if you haven't already done so.

Ok, Great! I plan to do the 1-min test today and will review the newbie guide again!

Colleen, looks like my login issues are finally resolved and I've passed the one-minute test and am ready to start reading. I can do Chapter 7 or 11 if either of them are open. Thanks

Nathan, great to have you! Glad you were able to get back in. Do you want to sign up for both or one of them? I'll put you down for Chapter 7 for now and can add Chapter 11 if you want it immediately, or you can do 7 and see how you like it and then decide if you want more.NathanPFry wrote: ↑December 22nd, 2020, 9:27 amColleen, looks like my login issues are finally resolved and I've passed the one-minute test and am ready to start reading.

Edit to add: It looks like you are not in the catalog yet. Do you want to be listed there as Nathan P. Fry or some other name? Do you have a website/podcast/etc you want your profile linked to?
Thanks!
Colleen

I just attempted my first recording - Chapter 7. Not really sure whether I've recorded, edited or uploaded correctly, but I tried to follow directions to the best of my understanding (I'm a computer dunce) and here's the link! Any advice will be appreciated

Concerning the catalog, I guess just Nathan Fry. I might add a website or podcast down the road if the recording bug takes root, but not for now, Thanks! If Chapter 7 came out ok the way I did it I can do Chapter 11 maybe later today.
