Following a move to a new town, Marjorie Dean must make new friends during her freshman year at high school. To her dismay, she makes a few enemies along the way too.

  • Text source (only read from this text!): http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/23644
  • Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): standard



    IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).
    Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process (unless you are the BC or PL). Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

Great! I added a ~ to the subject. We will wait here in the launchpad for a little bit and see if we can attract a DPL before we head over to going solo. Don't worry if we don't get one right away and please don't wait on having one before you start recording. Enjoy the project. I'll be lurking around if you need me. :wink:

Ch. 1 PL OK!

I love these stories. I suppose youngsters today would find them dated, but there is something universal in them regardless.
