Cheers

I really enjoyed your voice work! PL OK.

Welcome to LV!

Your section was nicely read.

Please extend the ending silence to ~5 seconds. We have found that some players cut off the last couple of seconds and we don't want your reading lost.

Please note the file name should have been firtreefairybook_08_johnson_128kb.mp3. Please correct the file name before you upload your correction.

18 is PL OK.

For future recordings you might consider balancing out the volume a bit. If you use Audacity, here is a video that should help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fKYYj6HMZU

Also, please try and get your ending silence to ~5 seconds. 4-6 is perfect. Yours is pushing the limit at a little over 7. Sometimes that's a lot of silence for the listener.
