Great reading, Diane!

Aunt Janet, Chapters 6, 11, 12, 18-20, 23-25, 27 are all PL OK!

One note about intonation in Chapter 32. At 2:12: "any one" should be read together as "anyone":
"I notice that you are as fond as any one of what is baked in them," (It's a little confusing when the words are read separately).

Thanks! You're a great contribution to our cast.
TJ
Hi TJ,
Thanks for the kudos. I can go back and correct Chapter 32, if you'd like. It wouldn't take much.
Diane
If you don't mind, that would be easiest. I could probably cut out the space, but the intonation wouldn't be right. You could just redo that part of the sentence, if you like.

Thanks again,
TJ

Ok, all done. It sounds a whole lot better. It didn't make much sense when I read it the first time, but I can see why now!

Also, I agree, I don't think it would have worked to just cut the space. There would need to be a space inserted after "anyone" and was just easier to re-do.

Here's the link:

Take care,
Diane

Thank you so much, Diane! Chapter 32 is now PL OK!
And I believe that's a wrap for Aunt Janet! Thank you so much for the super fast turnaround.

I hope to start the sequel very soon. I've got everything ready to go -- I'm just waiting for Elijah and Cadastra to get in their parts.

Thanks!
TJ

You are SO welcome. It was fun. I bet it feels good to have it all done. I'll be on the lookout for the sequel. Take care, D

Dan, Chapter 7, is now PL OK!

Thanks, Diego!

(Note: Dan, Donald, & Neil have all been edited into the chapter file -- we are just waiting for Betty).

Thanks, Bookworm! Great portrayal of Betty Sherman!

You missed her first lines on page 6:

"'Good morning, Mr. Campbell,'

'It's early abroad you are. And on Black Dan, no less! Was I mistaken in thinking that Donald Fraser said once that his favourite horse should never be backed by any man but him? But doubtless a fair exchange is no robbery, and Brown Bess is a good mare in her way.'

A few additional notes:
1:36:
Were I you, (I hear: "were I WERE you)

1:45:
"There's many a girl..." (I hear: "there's merry a girl...")

Thanks,
TJ

Bookworm360 hasn't checked into this project in over 2 months and does not have private messaging turned on. If I don't hear from her soon, I will have to orphan this role.

Tricia,

How do I advertise for a chapter PLer? I would prefer one person who would be willing to read the whole book (and give me tips on spacing, volume, etc., since this is my first Dramatic Reading).

I checked out the "Listeners & Editors Wanted" forum, but I don't get the codes...

Thanks,
TJ

Bookworm recently moved and her mic is packed away: viewtopic.php?f=25&t=35191&p=1820487#p1820487

It's the BC's choice what to do with this information.

I'll post the PL ad if you like. Give me a few minutes.

Chapter 1 is PL OK. Narration is wonderful. Intro doesn't exactly match the first post but all the requirements are there.

Note - only because you wanted editing feedback.
9:52 – If I were editing I would likely have tightened this by 0.5 seconds.

Chapter 2

0:03 word change – Chapter 2 of The Story Girl.
To make sure I’m on the same page. You purposely went with the short intro for subsequent chapters as if this were a solo recording?

10:31 “What is Uncle Roger like?” is duplicated by both Narrator and Felix. You must have merged tracks.
I only use multiple tracks when I edit when I’m doing a group line and then I keep them in a separate file and cut / paste from there.
