Thank you Tomas. :thumbs:

Thanks for the edit QTR :D The next thing to work on is the background noise which is now noticeable with amplifying.

Sorry about that. I went ahead and adjusted the noise reduction. I hope this is a little better. Thank you for the feedback.

Your reading is fine, David, other than a slight error of the author's name.
It sounded like you said 'Griffin' instead of 'Griffith' in the intro. :wink:

Good catch Lee Ann, thanks. :D

Thank you Joy, you have two .mp3 attached to your file, you needn't add the .mp3 when you save/export - it is automatically added by Audacity. :wink:
I've corrected this for cataloging.

Welcome YZeng, good first reading :thumbs: There are a few 'plosives - where your mic catches the breath made by the 'F' sound - such as in the word 'life'. You can fix this by turning the mic at an angle to your mouth so you are not speaking directly into it. A bit of experimenting may be in order to remedy this. :wink:

Thanks a lot for the tips, David! I feel happy to know how much I can improve in order to become a better reader :)

I would like to use my name "Yanyan Zeng" in the LV catalog, and my personal URL : https://zengyanyan.blogspot.com/
Do I need to post a request somewhere for these LV catalog changes?

Thanks,
YY
