Please at “Part 2” after the chapter title at the end of the intro.

Otherwise this section is perfect!

Hi - just letting the group know I haven't forgotten or bailed on finishing my sections. I will upload fixes to 10, 11, 16, and 17 this week. I am halfway done with section 18.

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.
I listened again to the copy I uploaded, and re-downloaded (hope that's okay :?) to see if it matched. It seems to be intact. Maybe something went wrong when you downloaded it?

Anyway, I will add the "part 1" and re-upload, along with the missing "part 1/2" of the other sections once it stops raining... it's coming down hard and I can't find a quiet spot. :(

I re-uploaded sections 10, 11, 16, 17 with the fixes.
I wasn't sure if this is what's intended, but for those sections (11 and 17) that are part 2 of their respective chapters, for the introduction I re-read the chapter number and title, and added "part 2". If not I can change it again. :?:

Hi,

Thanks for your patience with me!

MattM: Sections 10, 11 and 17 are now PL OK! I will finish with section 16 later today.

tcjsavannah: I am so sorry, I don't know how I managed to miss that these two sections have been waiting! I will also do them later today and get caught up to date.

Since AimingUp hasn't been seen on the forum for over a month, and hasn't picked up the PM I sent, I decided to orphan sections 12,13, 14 and 15.

Kazbek, can you take us back to the readers wanted area? :)

I have been enjoying reading this book and I would be happy to pick up 12 and 15. I have had trouble lately finding a quiet time and place to finish section 18, but I think I can manage that and these two more sections over the next month.

I finally got my recording situation together enough that I should be able to get 12 and 15 up this week as well.

PS: I noticed that the section 18 is ready for PL but the MW doesn't reflect that.
PPS: I finished recording Section 15. Will finish editing it very soon.

Question for Colleen: I have improved my Audacity game a bit recently. With sections 10, 11, 16, 17 that I recorded earlier, I wasn't using the de-clicker before, nor the compressor. Is it okay with you if I apply those filters to my already-PLed sections and re-upload?
