Thanks!
I have marked Prologue PL OK in the MW. As we do not have a regular Prooflistener in this project, you sure are welcome to drop-in.

Kristine :)

I've gotten very behind on this, but I'm still alive and thinking about it. my laptop crashed in October and needed a brand new harddrive. thank goodness for backups-- I only lost two days of work things.

next week my semester will be all over, so I'll make time to catch up on recording this.

I am sitting down to record some more of this right now!
apparently I also have to re-download Audacity cuz it's been so long and my harddrive crashed a few months back.
it may still be a while before I have new sections edited for upload, but I want to get this done this year. wish me luck.

there we go! 3 sections added for PL.

for section 2, it was such a funny coincidence that my dog started barking right around the section where the author is going on about a dog-barking scenario! so I kept some of that in where the text called for it. it seemed much more fun that me just reading the word "bark" so many times.

I just listened to Section 2. What a pleasure! The reading was perfect (PL OK .... :wink: ) And so very funny. I felt like I ought to have paid a little something to hear it. The barking was inspired, especially with that denouement ("are you going to let the dog in?") Priceless!

(PS, I just stole a sig from in here.)

aw, thank you so much!
it took a good while to edit all the barks around that section, so I'm glad it was worth it!
I hope you are doing well, Eva

Eva, would you like to become the dedicated proof listener for this project? No pressure, of course, if you don't want to.

Eva, thank you so much!
I'm just sitting down to record the rest of the sections. I'll hopefully have time to edit a few more soon too.
