Thank you but just to seek clarification... you were assigned sections 18 and 20. By submitting 'section 16', you have overwritten a previously submitted section 16.
If you recorded chapters 16 and 18, they should have been labeled _18_ and _20_ (2 earlier chapters had to be split into 2 due to word counts). I know it can be a little confusing, but file naming always follows the numbering in the MW.
Just let me know what you have done, and I may be able to fix it (if it is just a naming problem).
I'm so sorry! :cry: I think it is just a naming problem. I recorded chapters 16 and 18, which correspond to sections 18 and 20. I got turned around with the different numbers more than once before completing these recordings. Please let me know what I need to do to fix this.
To start with nothing. I will change the file names and put them in the MW for proof listening. Helen will listen when she gets a chance, and let you know if any edits are needed. If you do need to make edits, just be sure to re-upload with the correct file number (that corresponds with the MW)

PL notes: slight editing
33:18-22 finger snaps
33:42 finger snap
Note: for the future, I picked up a sound though-out the recording: e.g. (5:54, 6:02-08).
You don't need to do change anything here.

You have a beautiful reading voice. :D

I edited out the finger snaps. Thank you for catching those!

The sounds at 5:54, 6:02-08 and throughout the recording sounded like plosives. I applied an equalizer to diminish them. In the future, I'll try to position my microphone differently to prevent them.

Thank you for the compliment about my voice. I'm glad you like it. :D

Sorry I'm running so much later than I thought! It's been noisy every time I've brought the microphone out but I'm hoping I'll get everything done in the next couple of days since I'm finally home!

Thanks for letting me know what’s going on. I know how frustrating it can be! I’ve given you an extra week, but as this is the last section, I’d prefer not to leave it longer than that 8-)
