Thank you in advance for the proofing.
Well read. Your distinct character voices bring it to life.
Section 14 notes:
shorten silence in beginning to .5-1 second
0:49 say "pence" instead of d. (I only know this because I made the same error in the past and google.)
0:54 say "pence" instead of d.
2:17 should be "Mrs. Winslow vanished"; I heard "Miss Winslow vanished"
7:14 should be "Mrs. Winslow's shoulders"; I heard "Miss Winslow's shoulders"
7:16 missing sentence "That sent him off in another direction"
Also, next sentence should be "He became acutely sensible of Minnie's"; I heard "He became actively sensible of Minnie's"
8:12 missing sentence "How he hated writing letters!"
11:02 Missing word "day"; should be "this day three week"
13:45 should be "It didn't do for folks to be too proud"; I heard "It didn't do her folks to be too proud"
14:34 should be "tempering the wind to shorn";I heard "tempered the wind to shorn"
16:39 should be "She had her housemaid's gloves"; I heard "He had her housemaid's gloves"
20:18 should be "walked in a hushed manner"; I heard " walked in a husband manner"
21:09 remove "read by ...Washington" already stated in beginning of recording
Make sure there is 5 seconds silence at the end of the recording
Thanks!

Christine,
I have made all the edits you suggested.

Thank you for such thorough edit notes. They were well written and easy to follow.
My apologies for so many mistakes. This is only my 3rd reading or so and I am still figuring it out.
I will try to be a bit more careful in the future :)

Friendly suggestion: just proof listen with text after your first edit. This practice made a world of difference for me!

All edits confirmed. Just 2 more notes:
Beginning is still over 1 second silence i believe. It should be between .5 and 1 second
21:01 Should be "End of Sectionn 14" ; you say "end of section 22"

Thanks Christine. I think. That was a horrible story, wasn't it?

Just one PL note:

8:44 - missing a line "and their hands touched. Horrocks held the door open with a ceremonial politeness unusual in him towards men. Raut went out,"

Could I request a short extension on Section 16? My plan is to record it tonight, but I might not be able to edit right away. I'll have it submitted within a week at the latest.
