To make 8 sections out of that without breaking any parts up, a few of them can be grouped together with shorter + longer ones, but due to the order they're in, that still won't make things very even:

s.23: (#1 + #2) 3339 words
s.24: (#3 + #4 + #5) 4021 words
s.25: (#6) 4682 words
s.26: (#7) 1556 words
s.27: (#8) 3133 words
s.28: (#9) 2650 words
s.29: (#10) 3217 words
s.30: (#11) 1679 words
Just a curiosity:
having the (#6) of 4682 words, will it not be better to unite (#7) & (#8), obtaining 4689 words and\or (#10) & (#11), obtaining 4896 words? In this way, it seems they`ll be more homogeneus... 🦑

Well, when I said "due to the order they're in", I mean "due to the order they're in and the necessity to keep it to exactly 8 sections." Other sections after these have already been recorded, with specific section numbers included in their intros, so I assumed that making fewer than 8 parts out of this wasn't an option.

All right, thank you! 🧒

I’m fine with this division if it works story-wise

Sorry for the mistakes. Unfortunately I won’t be able to fix these right now as I am away for the rest of this month -but I would be happy to fix the problems in the first week of August. Thanks, Gini

Sec 08 PL notes:

1.6 s of silence at the start, instead of
Leave 0.5 to 1 second of silence at the beginning.
In the intro, the section is miscalled “chapter 7” and “The School of St. George and the Venerable Bede Part 5”, but this is, according to the MW, section 8, entitled “The School of St. George and the Venerable Bede Part 2”.

In accordance to how you read it, I believe it would be appropriate to say: “Section 8 of Joan and Peter. This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information or to volunteer, please visit librivox.org." [Optional: "Read by your name."] "Joan and Peter", by H. G. Wells.
Chapter the seventh. Part 2. The School of St. George and the Venerable Bede. Part 5”.
In this way, is well done, for instance, section 22.

But I also believe it is better to ask Lynnet for sure.

At the end of recording, the section 8 is miscalled “chapter 7” too.

The rest is Okay; thank you, Gini! 🧡

However, I wouldn`t noticed it, if it were the only irregularity.

I believe, “parts 1 through 4” at the start has to be removed.
Personally, I`d recommend to call it “Section 7”, just at the beginning (and only there), but this last advice remains to your own choice.

And the same – at the end of recording; “parts 1 through 4” has to be removed and I advise to say right as indicated in the MW:
"End of section 7."
The rest is OK. Thank you, Gini! 🌷
