That would be great, thanks MaryAnn! There's no rush - I'm glad someone can take it on, as it is quite a long section!

Good work! Looks like we are all coming together for the big finish!

Ch 32 is PL OK, very smooth reading!

Ch 24 sounds like an unedited draft? There are triple tongue clicks - please check?

Wow, brain short circuit. Here's the correct version of 24 (9:27). Sorry for the hassle ...

Chapter 24 is PL OK!

That was the last one, now we just need the (rather long) introduction!

Beth,
Here's the intro. Kinda challenging read. I found myself leaving a bit longer pauses than I would normally, but in some spots, I felt I needed that longer pause to indicate we were moving away from the series of newspaper quotes and back to the author's essay, or some other similar transition.

Let me know what you think. On a re-listen through, I didn't think any of the pauses made me go "huh?", but that may be because it I'm a bit biased, having put them in that way to start.

Thanks MaryAnn, that introduction is PL OK! I see what you mean about the longish pauses, but I agree that they are necessary to help the flow and understanding of the text. Challenging read!

I've also adjusted the summary paragraph and we are now ready for the catalogue! Thanks everyone!

And special kudos to Sylvia!!
