Thank you for your recordings.
All of your technical specifications are correct.

In both of these recordings, however, there are numerous distracting lip smacks and other extraneous noises. Although we might let these pass, they are easy to clip out of your recording, so I'm suggesting you listening carefully for these and cut them. You will also see these easily on the wave from in Audacity if you expand it.

Here are the time stamps of the most noticeable ones so you can hear what I am talking about.
I lot of us struggle with this. It is largely just being aware of it and avoid making those sounds, but deleting them during editing when they do occur. It takes some practice.

SECTION 19
2.5 4.5 9.0 12.0 26.0 34.0 40.0 1:01

SECTION 20
0.20 8.5-9.0 16.0 25.0 31.5 37.5 42.5 50.0 1:11 1:17

Also, in section 20 intro, you said "read by LibriVox DOT org" instead of "read for." So please correct that as well.

Please upload your corrected recordings under the same file names and post the links and new lengths here again so we can check them.

Thank you for working on these.
