These are short sections, so I have set the deadline to 1 month instead of the usual 2. Please be aware of this.

May I read 1 and 5?

My brother and I were just having a discussion about adult fairy tales, and this is a great little essay.

Hi,

Welcome to LibriVox! Section 3 is yours. Please read the first post of this thread carefully.

Please let me know under which name you'd like to appear in the LibriVox catalogue. It can be your real name, forum name or a pseudonym ~ whatever you prefer!

Also, since this is your first recording, we ask that you send in a 1-minute test recording. This is not an audition, it's just to make sure the sound quality and the recording settings are all right - often things can be improved at the outset that are difficult to fix later. Please go to https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=1-Minute_Test to find out what to record for your 1-minute test, and how to upload the recording. In the LibriVox Uploader, please select 'tests - tests' from the MC drop-down, and then post your test recording in the Listeners Wanted forum, rather than in this thread - you'll get feedback more quickly there.

Thanks, and have fun!
Maria

"Pumpkins and Possibility" - a title too intriguing to resist. :)

May I claim it, please?
