Benderca, would you like me to PL your sections along with the final chapters?
Thanks for offering, Elijah. You don't have to listen to Cecily's part because I PL it when I'm editing it. I haven't decided if I'm going to upload Bev/Narrator separately or just upload it with the other parts edited in for you to PL. What do you think? Since you're going to PL the finished chapters anyway, you could watch out for mistakes then. Or do you think it would be easier for you to PL Bev/Narrator first and then the chapter? I'll have a few Bev chapters ready to upload soon. Maybe you can take a listen and then decide what you prefer.

Thanks,
TJ

Story Girl, Chapter 12:

Great story telling again, Cadastra!

2:31 "He acted mean right through, Aunt Janet says." Instead of "through," you say "though."


00:58, 02:58, 03:07
I've never heard your pronunciation of "Montreal," Canada before. It sounds to me like the French pronunciation of "Mount" and the French pronunciation of Royal, so roy-AL.

I did a little research and I could only find two very similar pronunciations: how I pronounce it, mon-tree-ALL, and a local version mun-tree-ALL. Wikipedia says, "Montreal is always pronounced [ˌmɐntʃɹiˈɒl], following its historic official English-language name." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebec_English

At 4:24 of this video, Dana says Montreal:

If you have insider information, however, I'm open to suggestions... :D

Uncle Roger Chapter 12 is PL OK!
(I love your burst of laughter! Nice!)


Uncle Roger, Chapter 13:
0:16 It seems impossible he could walk so far. Instead of "far," you say "fast." :D


Uncle Roger, Chapter 14:
The last line of your recording should be: "She's got a head on her shoulders."
The Gutenberg text I used for the script had a typo in it, but I checked with the scanned book on archive, because that "of" didn't seem to make sense, and sure enough, it should be "on". Sorry about that. :oops: (I'll correct the script).

Uncle Roger Chapter 15 and Chapter 16 are PL OK
(Your volume is a little high -- at 93.4 and 93.2 they fall out of the target range of 86-92 dB, but I can adjust them when I edit. If you use Checker 0.96 before you upload your files, you can adjust the volume yourself in the future). Great temper tantrum in Chapter 15 -- it's nice to see a different side of Uncle Roger. And great fit of laughter in Chapter 16! :D ).

Thanks, Adam!
