Hi, Phil.
Thank you for the correction ... but ... I don't see it here.
Am I missing something?
Whoops again. I uploaded the correction and it automatically replaces the file in the magic window so I just posted the notice since the file does not need to be put there. So it can be checked now. Sorry for the confusion. About the five seconds, that makes sense to me and it seems to work so let's go with that. :D

Thanks, Phil.
All is PL OK. And yes, indeed. Learn something new every day!

Best,

You are so welcome, Jim.
I admit ... I DID giggle quite often when I heard the cow called "Mignon." It means "cute, or pretty" in French.
... But. That. Ain't. What. *I* Was. Thinkin'.

Angelique,

Alright, this was a rough day for me (the air force was doing figure 8s over my neighborhood, and the british accent requested by another project seems to have overstayed it's welcome) please let me know if that frustration shone through! I can't seem to tell upon editing whether I'm just getting frustrated all over again or whether there IS way too much wrong here and I just need to give it another go. I trust your keen ears!

Thanks, Jim!
Chapter 5 is PL OK.
Yesss, indeed. It doesn't take most narrators long to learn that we must eat before recording, as stomach rumbles are impossible to edit out.
But I wasn't expecting that while simplying PLing the section. *Laugh*
And *Blush*
Many Regards!

Section 19 is charmingly read, Melissa, and all PL OK.

On a side note, I am now wondering if, when I suggested this book for recording, if I were not very hungry. *Laugh*
The last few sections I've PL'd have all centered around dinner and food. *Laugh*

Wellll. It's time to eat again, so I shall get to your next section in just a few minutes. *wink*

Dear Melissa,
Not a bit of need to re-record in entirety on The Wolf Mother dear!
Certainly the touch of accent here does not sound pretentious in the least, so ease your mind.

Only one PL note for correction. At the very end, 10:12, you say "Reading (and I can almost hear you think 'No') ... Recording by Melissa Green."
It shouldn't take too long to redact "Reading" and leave "Recording" and re-upload.
You may want to wait until you narrate another piece, make the correction for this and then re-post.
I think you'll be happier with the recording that way. *Smile*

As always, a pleasure to hear you, Melissa!

Oh gosh! You'd think I'd have done enough recording by now not to have missed that :lol: but, as always, our listeners are our most precious resource. I'll get that fixed and re-uploaded right away!

Thank you Angelique
