I'm adopting this.

Three sections to record, probably all in the 20-minute range (although I cannot give word counts to be sure). Who's with me?

Thanks!

I made the division at a paragraph break around the middle of the chapter. If you find a better breaking spot, feel free to use it. :)

Hi Tricia--

May I claim Section 08? Looks a bit challenging, but so interesting.

Thanks!
Kind regards,
Lucretia

Not the easiest of all my recordings. Why oh why do I always record those ancient texts? *sigh*

Hi Tricia--

I wanted to let you know that I am currently traveling. I have already recorded my Section 8, but I have not edited it. I intended to edit while on this trip, but unfortunately it is saved to a laptop at home. Great. :roll:

So I can probably get it to you in a couple of weeks if that is O.K. I will enjoy completing the section. But if you want the project cataloged sooner than that, I understand. I'm the last one outstanding...sorry.
Kind regards,
Lucretia

You're the last to submit...out of 2 readers since this was made into a group project. :lol: No worries - another couple of weeks won't hurt anything.

O.K., Tricia, here is the last section for this project. I really did enjoy it, although not so easy to read with that old-fashioned long "s". Thank you for your patience in letting me complete it around my travels. The structure of the work as a "conversation" reminds me of a project that I worked on here several years ago called "The Heptameron", also very enjoyable. Glad this one will be in the catalog!
