One little thing, how long is the recording (mm.ss)? Please remember to always post the duration of the recording along with the link so that I can fill in the magic window. Thank you!

I heard: "...one only has to ask the beggar one sees about the bronze boar..."
The text: "...one only has to ask the first beggar one sees about the bronze boar..."
This makes the sentence confusing.

Section 34 - "The Story of a Mother" - has one and only one problem; you didn't leave 5 (but no more than 10) seconds of silence at the end. I read in one of the forum posts somewhere here the reason LibriVox has this persnickety rule is there are some MP3 players that don't play the last couple seconds of a file. If you can take your file, add about 3 seconds of silence to the end, and upload it again your section will pass easily. (If you have any trouble with this, not that I expect you to, send me a private message or post in the forum and we'll work it out.)
What a sad story - Hans Christian Andersen sure knew how to write them that way!
The file I downloaded is different from the previous one. Maybe what you see when you try to check what you've just uploaded is in your computer's cache. I'll be listening to the new section 38 asap, then I'll get along to section 22.
Thank you for my PL notes! I'm not sure how to fix one of the problems, however. I skipped a paragraph in my recording, and I'm not sure how to go about editing it back in without deleting the rest of it.

hi skyler, thats very simple. just open a new file in audacity and record the paragraph. then edit it just as your completed recording, including noiceleaning etc. then copy-paste it into your existing story. it helps to listen to the section of your recording into which you want to paste it and to mimic the tone of voice you used so that it blends in properly. have a look at this wiki page: http://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/Editing_Audio and possibly some others that might be helpful
