It is nice to know these things, isn't it? :lol: I believe there's a sort of instruction manual that says how to do those things, but I'm not sure where to find it... :hmm:

Anyway, here is the nineteenth chapter for Frank:
<https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/jackandjill_19_frank.mp3> (3:59)
Here are chapters 20, 21, 22, and 23 for Frank Minot.
<https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/jackandjill_20_frank.mp3> (3:42)
<https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/jackandjill_21_frank.mp3> (1:46)
<https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/jackandjill_22_frank.mp3> (0:20)
<https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/jackandjill_23_frank.mp3> (2:02)

For chapter 23, there may be one line that belongs to Frank: "Put him in the old refrigerator, he can't get out of that." But I honestly couldn't make heads or tails of it.
The part coming afterwards makes it sound like it is Frank speaking. But then why would Frank use a sepulchral tone, unless he was being facetious? In the sentence coming before, Frank is the subject of the first clause but then Jack is introduced and the last clause seems to be ambiguous as to who is doing the speaking; however, I'm not confident about my grammar. There may be a rule governing the subject in a case like this.
I didn't record it because I wasn't sure of myself, but I will be happy to append it later, if it is found that it really is Frank's line.
Frank chapters 20, 21, 22, 23, & 24 are all PL OK Just one littler thing in Chapter 19:
@ 3:32 during the line "but I wouldn't disappoint Bob for a good deal, now he is willing to come." there is some noise in the background

Yes, the line in chapter 23 was for Frank. It made sense to me at least.

Awesome reading big brother! :wink: :lol:

Hey Twinkle,
I made a very minor mistake while putting chapters in the MW. I had accidentally clicked on Jill Pecq's files and saved some of Frank's in there. I noticed the mistake I made right away and corrected it. However, I deleted Jill's chapters 19 & 20, but can't figure out how to add them back for some reason. I'm just having problems with the <a href thingy I believe. If you could please add those back, that would be wonderful. Here are links:

I'm good with MW's..... except when it comes to the detailed things you do. Your so good at it, and I really try to not mess things up :oops: .... but at least I corrected the big part.

Also Twinkle, I think you asked about my saying "Jack, read by Elijah," (sorry, I couldn't remember the word for that), but it is in Chapter 1. :thumbs:

Deepest apologies for my delay, here's Chapter 1, 3 and 6 for Ed Devlin.

Chapter 1 (00:27)
https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/jackandjill_01_eddevlin.mp3

Chapter 2 (00:33)
https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/jackandjill_03_eddevlin.mp3

Chapter 3 (00:50)
https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/jackandjill_06_eddevlin.mp3

I will try to finish the remaining chapter as soon as i can. As I am not a native speaker, please let me know if I got weird pronunciation, tone and mistake, I would be more than happy to amend it :wink:
You did an awesome job! I couldn't tell you were a native speaker had you said anything. You are very good in your English, and your reading was just excellent. You have a very happy character in your voice, well done.

So the reading was excellent and outstanding. There was only one thing with chapter 1. There's not a lot of silence between the lines, we try to get 3-5 seconds so it's easier when editing time comes :wink: Thank you!

Just took a look (as I am the editor) at Chapter 1, and since it is short I should be able to work with it fine. So, if you haven't started fixing it, you should be OK. That being said, in future projects please follow this advice and give a tad more silence. Can't wait to hear these!
