Thank you so much Tricia, I promise to be more diligent in future :roll:
I have just unearthed an old copy of her "Dreams" (it belonged to my mum) which I hope to do when this is finished - hopefully I can find the same edition Online :)

Hey Noel,

I will listen to it soon, since I have been away for a few days.
Sorry for the delay.

Hello Noel!

I PL'd section 0, and the reading is great!
However, I am unsure if this needs to be edited, but you read (the introduction part)as "forward to" instead of section 0.
If it doesn't need to be changed, this section is PL OK.

Sorry for the delay in proof listening.

Hi Bhavya,
Thanks for that.
I normally use "Introduction", "Preface" or "Foreword" instead of "Section 0" and it has usually been accepted by the MC, so I think that you can mark it as OK. No problem with delays either, I am juggling three books at the moment :D

Hi,
Section 2 is ready for PL.

Tricia,
I put the two sections together so that I could make sure that they got the same sound levels etc and then re-uploaded section 1.
The two together are only 43mins long so I could combine them into one file if you preferred.

It's up to you. Do you prefer listeners have one file of 43 minutes, or two files of 21/22 minutes? :)

:) Well, my wife is adamant that she does not like to listen to files much longer than 30 Mins. So I guess we will leave as is.

Schreiner was certainly a remarkeable woman.
I have long known her as novelist and story writer but never knew of her work on equality and politics before.

Hi Tricia,
I just noticed that Section 2 has been marked PL OK! So I guess we are all ready to go.

Thanks Bhavya :thumbs:

Great!

Bhavya - Please be sure to post in the thread when you do a PL, even if it's just to say "section 3 PL OK". That way we're notified when there's action in the project. Changing the Magic Window doesn't notify anyone. :)

No worries! I'll get started cataloging this.
