Hello. I have uploaded and welcome your feedback.

Thank you.

Nice pacing and articulation in your recording. We do have a few notes on this chapter:

At the start, please reduce the silence to within .5 to 1.0 second.

At :21 "twenty one" is repeated
4:53 repeat of phrase: "Why don't you look at the..."
5:45 "merciful feathers" should be "merciful fathers"
6:00 audible loud intake of breath
8:02 "as in usual such places" should be "as usual in such places"
8:31 "this doesn't look much like a ..." should be "this don't look much like a..." [I know the grammar is incorrect but that's how he talks]

At the end, please reduce the silence to only 5 seconds - you have about 8

If you need assistance with editing, please let me know. Replacing or adding words is a "cut and paste" procedure in which you can highlight the second, open a new window (Ctl + N) to record the new words, copy them (Ctl + C), close the window without saving, return to the original window and use Ctl + V to paste them into your original recording.
Oh my, cringe moment.
I am so glad there was no permanent damage. Thank you for your kindness and help with cleaning the mess I made.

I appreciate your kind feedback. I will address those issues and advise when uploaded, with the correct filename this time.

Happy Thanksgiving.

I've checked your corrected file -- we still have a bit too much silence at the beginning (please reduce to between .5 and 1.0), and at 5:38, we still have "merciful feathers." Everything else is fine.

Chapter 21
I have shortened the beginning silence. The later error is very minor and I think it can be overlooked, so I have marked it PL OK and will head to the catalog.

Before you go to catalog, I still have outstanding notes on chapters 2 and 4.

It’s already in the catalog. I thought you just hadn’t marked them.
