Section 14 is 7:08
What a lively reading, Tatiana! So lovely

A couple of notes:
:21 this is chapter 13, not 14 (the section is 14)
2:09 distance of from
6:09 hunting with a narrative should be hunting with a native

I think we only have about 4 seconds at the end. Can you increase to 5?

Thanks for the compliment! :thumbs:

Is it possible to fix those parts without rerecording the entire thing, or would it be really noticeable? I know you aren't supposed to stop and start for that reason but obviously if I don't have to start from scratch I prefer that. Deferring to the expertise of others here!

Just jumping in here to say: please don't re-record the whole thing! It is a lot of work - both for you and the PLer, that would have to listen all per again. What I recommend doing is opening the file you are fixing; then open a blank file. Record the sentence (not just one word or two, but the whole sentence where the mistake happened), then amplify/noise clean trying to do just the same you did when you recorded the original. Then substitute that part of the old file with the new recording. It is sometimes noticeable because we cannot reproduce conditions/background noises etc. But by having a chunk of text, not just a small snippet, it is a lot less jarring. Rita will probably give you some advice on that too. :mrgreen:

Hello, Judy, and welcome to Librivox. As stated in the first post, as a new reader, you need to let me know under what name/pseudonym you would like to be listed in our catalog. Also, we strongly encourage all new readers to start by trying the 1-minute test, as explained here: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=1-Minute_Test
