Section 20:
10:40 - "And while each has his or her..." Repeated at 10:44

Section 21:
2:00 - a few repeats/stumbles on "acceptation"
27:21 - stumble, raspberry, and repeat. :mrgreen: "We involuntarily shrink back"

That little speech about marriage and "a happy home" didn't really fit in with the chapter, but I guess we can allow him a digression. :lol:

So sorry about that I usually do a couple of mouth clicks when I make an error as I can see them very clearly when editing. Occasionally this comes out as a raspberry and is not as easy to spot. :lol:

Many thanks here are the edited files and times.

Are the quotes at the beginning of chapters to be read?
Also, do we include footnotes? And if we do, do we include them where they are in the text or at the end of the chapter?

Yes, read the quotes at the beginning of the chapter.

No, don't include footnotes. :) They're references, and not interesting to the listener.

Thanks!

Welcome! I'll put you in for these. They should run about 30-35 minutes of finished recording.

Please do take the time to do the 1-minute test before starting in on it, though. That way you can be sure your tech settings are all correct. :)

How would you like to be credited in the catalog? There are places for a catalog name (some use a nickname or forum name, some their real name) and a link to a personal web site or blog, if you have one. I recommend using whatever name you say (if any) when you say, "recorded by [your name]" as that's how listeners will look for you. (Keep in mind that prospective employers, classmates, enemies, etc. can also find you using the catalog name, so be cautious if privacy might be an issue.)

Thank you! As for as being credited, I will stick with your recommendation and use the name I say when I record, which will be my real name.

Best,
Justin
