May I take The Frog, the Craw-fish, and the Serpent? I would apricate it! Thanks!

What a fun fun accent you have! And an enjoyable rhythm to your reading.

At 10:20 there is a word change that gives the sentence a different meaning. The text reads "few SOVEREIGN princes can say...";
I heard "few FOREIGN princes can say..." Please edit this.

At 12:03 I hear PER for FEAR. Is that what you hear ellies? If so, thank you for changing it.
Section 41 will be PL-OK when re-submitted.

Thanks.

I just finished with section 54.

Here is the link just in case https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/fablesofpilpay_54_anonymous_128kb.mp3

Thanks for my first Librivox experience,
Thomas
Thomas, you should be really pleased with how well your first reading turned out. I'm impressed! Thanks for being a part of this. - April

There are a few technical notes that I think you can work with to really perfect this selection:
  • The volume is coming in at 93.2 and should ideally be within the range of 89.0 and 92.0 dB. You can run it through Replay Gain (and possibly the Amplify effect, although I rarely use that. I'm no expert on this yet - just ask Craig, who had to fix my volume on one piece!)
  • I believe the MC wanted everyone to say the Fable # as part of the title of the selection, so please add in "Fable Five" at the 26 sec mark.
  • Places where sentence fragments were repeated: 3:36, 4:10, and 5:20. The second instance of each is perfect, so I bet you meant to delete the ones that have the timestamps I've mentioned.
  • Normally, this wouldn't be worth mentioning, but since you are in there anyway, at 3:12, you have "serve you an acceptable service" instead of "do you an acceptable service"
  • 3:22 extended pause
  • 3:27 "King" has been subbed in for "thing"
  • 3:33 "Vizier" is pronounced differently than it is at 6:40 (the 6:40 one is closer to how I've heard it pronounced in other stories)
  • 4"52 "evens" has been subbed in for the text "Ravens"
  • And please leave 5 seconds of silence at the end.
