Larry,

List me as James En. Thanks!

James
p.s. I'm in Manchester, NH

That's great!
I've added you to the LibriVox catalog and assigned you section 111,112. Just click on your name in the Magic Window to view your personal reader page. This is where you can track all of your LV projects, of which I hope there will be many!

WELCOME TO LIBRIVOX

Read all of the instructions in the head post of this project. Follow the various links there, esp the Newbie Guide to Recording. Lots of good material there. And ask questions! We are a helpful bunch.

We'll we're only about 45 min apart. Lived in Manchester for several years, and after other adventures, find ourselves back in NH.

Alrighty, got my technical issues corrected and the pauses are trimmed down. Let me know if anything else needs to be changed, thanks!

Well, we got Section 6 PL OK

Section 5: Opening is still at 2 seconds, and ending over 5. We need 0.5 - 1.0 and about 5 at the end.
Section 7: The end is 7 seconds, so need to trim to 5

Let's give it one more shot in these two, okay?

Maybe you didn't upload the edited file -- the opening silence is about 2.5 seconds, and we need between 0.5 and 1.0 seconds.
Also, at 0:8 you repeat the name of the poem. Since it is in the intro, you don't need it again. So, clip that out and trim the silence, and you'll be golden. Very lovely reading of this poem!

111 "Carry On"

This is my first recording and editing project that I have ever done. Reading poetry was never on my priority list of reading material. However, after doing this poem, I realize I have missed out on a literary genre that is a treasure.

Welcome to the wonderful world of poetry!

You reading is quite nice and the tech specs are just fine.
There is just one correction to be made. Each LV recording has an "outro," as we often call it. You will find this specified in the instructions in the initial post. For this, and most poetry projects it is simply, ,"End of poem. This recording is in the public domain." This needs to be added to your recording.

You can record this in a separate instance of Audacity, then copy and paste it into you recording. Adjust of spacing and volume, and leave five seconds of silence at the end. Then upload it again with the same file name, and post the link and new time here again.

This is a really good start, so congratulations are in order!

Perfect!

I would be pleased to have you read some more, but I'd rather you make the choice. I think we have something like 36 sections still open.
