It is 3:17 long =)
Here is the link to the recording https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/veryshortstories_11_clifford_128kb.mp3.mp3
I will be posting the rest of my work today as well, been tinkering with them a few days =)
At 1:27 you say, "Presently he looked up at the doll again and yawned." The actual line is "Presently he looked up again and yawned." At 1:38 you say "I'll take that doll and hang it up on the apple tree to scare away the sparrows." The actual line is "'I'll take that doll and hang it up to the apple tree to scare away the sparrows." The beginning could also use a little more silence, as you're right at the 0.5 mark. Please re-upload with the same file name. Thanks!

https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/veryshortstories_39_clifford_128kb.mp3

Duration: 1:30
The recording falls out of target range at 81.7 dB. You can increase it by going to Effect<Amplify and then entering the number you want it to be increased by. I suggest increasing it by about 7 dB. In the beginning, you have over a second of silence, we aim for 0.5-1 seconds of silence. Your recording could use some noise reduction as well. To do this, highlight your recording (command/control a), then go to Effect<Noise Reduction. Click on Get Noise Profile, then go to Effect<Noise Reduction again, and where it says Noise Reduction, you enter a number, then press enter, and it will cut off some of the background noise. Please re-upload with the same file name. Thanks.
(For future reference, you won't have to sing while reading, unless it is a song or tells you to sing.) :D

Section 18: The recording falls out of the target range (86-92 dB). I suggest increasing it by 10 dB, and to do this you can go to Effect<Amplify, and enter 10 in the box that shows up. Apologies if you already knew this. After the amplifying, there might be some background noise, you can go ahead and noise reduce that. We aim for 0.5-1 seconds of silence at the beginning, you have more. We aim for 5 or more seconds of silence at the end, you have less. At 34 seconds you say "So the proud boy was lonely, and he would have had no friends out of doors if it had not been for two stray dogs, the green trees, and a flock of geese upon the common." The actual line is "So the proud boy was lonely, and would have had no friends out of doors if it had not been for two stray dogs, the green trees, and a flock of geese upon the common." At 1:51 you say "No, I am." The actual line is "No, I am not." The beginning and ending could do with a little bit of noise reduction as well. I'm not sure what the "Austin, Texas March 30th, 2021" is, I assume that is where you live and the date you recorded the recording, I think you can delete that part.

Section 19: This again falls out of the target range (86-92 dB). I suggest increasing it by 23 dB, and you can follow the steps I gave above for Section 18. We aim for 0.5-1 seconds of silence at the beginning, you have more. We aim for 5 or more seconds of silence at the end, you have less. At 38 seconds you say "The snowdrops dried", the actual line is "The snowdrops died". At 1:50 you say "so many of us carry secrets that ourselves know last of all." The actual line is "so many of us carry secrets that we ourselves know last of all." You can delete the "Austin, Texas April 2nd, 2021" at the end.

Two things: In the beginning, you have less than 0.5 seconds of silence, we aim for 0.5-1 seconds of silence. Noise reduction could be beneficial as well, you can use my instructions I gave before.

The recording falls out of target range at 81.7 dB. You can increase it by going to Effect<Amplify and then entering the number you want it to be increased by. I suggest increasing it by about 7 dB. In the beginning, you have over a second of silence, we aim for 0.5-1 seconds of silence. Your recording could use some noise reduction as well. To do this, highlight your recording (command/control a), then go to Effect<Noise Reduction.

Hi Roma,
Here is another version of Section#39 The White Rabbits. I double checked it and think that everything is good now. Thank you for your patience. I'm doing the editing for the first time.
