I could do the orphaned stage directions, but I don't believe I can get to it until Wednesday. If someone else can whip it out faster, they're welcome to it.
School fiction: David Blaize
America Exploration: The First Four Voyages of Amerigo Vespucci
Serial novel: The Wandering Jew
Medieval England meets Civil War Americans: Centuries Apart

I had a spare ten minutes today that I wasn't expecting. Here's narrator:

That’s wonderful, thank you, Tricia.
Today was errand day and I’m wiped out. I’ll get it PLed and edited in the morning.

Nemo, final section is ready for PL. There may be a few stage directions in the first segment which are more distracting than helpful. Let me know what you think. If needed, it's easily edited.

Thanks Linny!
I see what you mean about the stage directions. There are a lot that come in a very short space and while most add to the story, I do think a few could be cut out. Your call, but here would be my suggestions as the actors pretty much captured the feel in their readings ...
Effusively - 1:10
Surprised - 1:19
Coyly - 1:30
Burst Out - 1:32

Anna,
We are all finished here.
An addition to the catalog will be for editing.

I would like to make some suggestions for some stage direction removals -- it kind of interrupts the mood.NemoR wrote: ↑February 21st, 2018, 7:39 amThanks Linny!

I think the following could easily be removed (I think the voices convey these directions):
0:42 shyly
0:52 regretfully
0:59 mysteriously
1:03 nervously
1:16 absently
1:35 horrified
1:48 tragically
1:56 bewildered
2:40 terrified
4:13 overcome
5:42 indignantly
6:16 laughs (I laugh here)
6:23 uncomfortably
6:49 shortly
7:24 earnestly
7:30 desperately
Would it be possible to remove them?
Hi TJ,
Since Anna may already be processing the files for catalog and Nemo was fine with the other directions I think it's best to leave them. They are common in the other sketches and removing too many of them may actually sound strange when listening to the entire project.

Thanks!
Sorry everyone, I was distracted by some things in my life, and haven't been around for some time. I'm back now, and will be trying to catch up over the next few days. Will work on cataloguing this today.
My apologies for the delay
