I love this one the most of all, I think. there are no rights but human rights-- so timeless.

I'll get to this just as soon as I can.
I've fallen behind on my DPL projects, and we'll be away part of this weekend.
Looking forward to listening to this.

no worries! I will hopefully have the last letter all edited and ready in the next few days. these shorter ones are much easier to get through.

then to ponder what will my next solo be.... hmmmmmmm...

Excellent letter, for sure!
Just a couple of notes:

- Volume is low at only 85.9 just a tad under the lower limit of 86, so you might want to amp this a bit
- At about 5:45-47 there is a longish pause that you might want to shorten. Minor but take a listen

fixed those two things (hopefully).

also here is letter 13, the conclusion!

Section 12 is PL, as is 13 except for the ending.
I think you need the full text: "End of LETTERS TO CATHERINE E. BEECHER IN REPLY TO AN ESSAY ON SLAVERY AND ABOLITIONISM, by Angelina Emily Grimké"

turns out it's a bit more of a hurdle than I anticipated getting my microphone back out to record a proper last line. but I will get to it! within the next few days I hope.
so close....

plaidsicle · Post by **plaidsicle** » June 25th, 2022, 5:29 pm

alright, finally added the full closing line. uploading shortly!

Almost there!
The silence at the beginning should be .5-1.0 seconds, and you have only about .2 I don't want anything to get cut off at the beginning, so it would be good for you to add a smidge. And at the end there should be about 5 seconds, but there are only about 2, so need to add a few more.

Optional, while you're at it, 1:26-1:29 sounds like a bit long pause to me.
