Betsy Thoughtless is about an intelligent and strong-willed woman who marries under pressure from the society in which she lives. Betsy learns that sometimes giving way to the role of women within a marriage can at times be fulfilling. This is the fourth and final volume in this series. Does she get her man you will have to listen and find out. ( Michele Eaton )
Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): standard
IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated). Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process (unless you are the BC or PL). Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

I suggest waiting a couple of days in the Launch Pad in hopes of a DPL spotting this one. We can move over to Going Solo sooner since the Launch Pad is large if you prefer.
Hi David
Great thanks for that. Am happy to wait to see if we get a DPL thanks

Hi,
Chapter 3 is PL OK.
Just one tiny note on Chapter 4. In the 'Intro'....it is missing "the Volume 4" identifier like the other Chapter Intros.
Otherwise, it was fine.
Should get the rest in the next day or so.
My...how times have changed!
