Very nice reading! A couple of notes:

0:32. Add “part 1” after chapter title

9:04. Missing a word “will NOT settle” (changes entire meaning!)

Post here when you have uploaded the corrected addition and I’ll spot check.

In the MW, the end of Section 16 is listed as "p.218 (until "a great deal of the world")" which is the end of the entry for Thursday June 12th, but it says Section 17 should start with the entry for Wednesday, June 11th.
Is it OK if I resolve this by ending Section 16 at the end of June 10th ("I am quite tired of this inactive lazy life.")?

Given that this and the next are both your sections, you can divide them as you see fit

I hope you are well. Here is the recording for section 12! It's length is 45:51.

https://librivox.org/uploads/kazbek/journal_12_cresswell_128kb_mp3.mp3

Thank you.

A very good first go at recording for LibriVox! A few corrections needed:

—The file still fail with Checker due to excess background noise. Please follow instructions from earlier post in this thread to do noise cleaning.

—0:20 Finish reading the chapter title as shown in the first post in this thread. There is also a long pause in the intro; try to keep pauses between sections of a recording to about one to one and a half seconds.

— 1:24 small stumble at “Dutch and Irish”

— 2:16 “land” should be “landlord”

—5:44 repeated phrase “or rather”

—10:19 small stumble/repeat at “Shammory Ferry”

—11:34 “elevens” and “tens” should be “11 shillings” and “10 shillings”

You are off to a good start!

Colleen

Something odd happens midway thru this section. At about 13:59 the text abruptly cuts off and starts over at the beginning of the chapter. The break is at the beginning of the entry for May 31 1777. From 13:59-27:55 is a repeat of the first part of the chapter, then continues forward from that point and includes through “paid the forfeiture of my folly” on page 225, which is where the file abruptly ends. The remaining text from page 225-232 is missing, as is the outro. I think there may have been a cutting and pasting error during editing that obliterated the second half of the file.

Aside from this the only other edited needed is to add “part 1” at the end of the intro, after the chapter title.
