Bumping for visibility. Just want to be sure this was seen. :D
Thank you Justin, nicely and clearly read. High quality sound.
PL NOTES: please add 5s of silence at the end of the recording.
26:09: "I do not find any recent mention of the appearance" appears to be a duplicate of what follows.

I also noticed a few places where you have popping "p"s (e.g. at 20:53). They are not sufficient to fail PL, but please be aware of your
position related to the microphone. For example, you can move the mic off to the side, but still keep it close to your mouth. (You might have a look at my video: Part 9: Avoiding Pops https://youtu.be/zPpz1qv0XSk)

Best Regards,
Adrian

Thank you for the feedback. I'll work on the reduction of plosives. Ah, that duplicate somehow escaped my round of edits. I'll correct and reupload right away.

EDIT: Here is the newest upload which corrects the duplicate sentence, and adds 5 seconds of silence at the end of the recording.

Hello Julian,
I did just mark your newest recording for a spot pl by Adrian. So now the proper time is 32:06?

Hello coffeeeurope,Hektor-
Hoping all is well with you. I have attached your reader page for upcoming Librivox audios you will record & I do hope that you will fill it with numerous self-chosen audios!! I have not heard from you and even though there is 2 months for you to post your final section for pl approval, I thought to give you a gentle nudge......

Hello RP Brevard,
I do not know if you have a copy of your reader sections page. I have attached a copy of it in case you do not. It will show all of your future Librivox recordings. I enjoyed that when it was shown to me so I hope your will as well. :)
I have not heard anything from your original claim to section 1 & I do hope all is well with you. Yes, 2 months is the time frame for you to post that section for pl approval so you can say I am merely checking on you.

Just checking in for a moment...
It looks like I can post my assignment (section 9, Of Evil Omens) within about 10 days.
If this is too long, I can bow out of this project, so you can assign it to someone more efficient than I.

OOPS... I have to bow out now. :cry:
All of a sudden, I have about 500 new things to deal with at home.
So please open up Section 9.
And for the new assignee: This section is long, but entertaining...
Thank you...LJB

Hello Louise,
It is okay for you to bow out. :thumbs: Thank you for letting me know so that it will be opened to a different reader.

Hi again, sorry if its taking to long, im wondering if its not a problem if i take my time with this, didn't expect it to be so difficult haha. But if you need the chapter done quickly maybe i should back out? From my understanding the time limit is 2 months?

Hello,
The time frame for recordings is 2 months so June 11th is the 2 month date. An extension can be given to you if necessary, lets wait until the 2 month date is upon us to decided that. You mentioned that you didn't expect it to be so difficult. Is there something specific that is problematic for you with this audio? Please do let me know and we will get the problem resolved.
April
