Here is the upload link of my reading of chapter 21, part II of The Elder Son.

This needs a review, of course. Thanks.
Thanks! This has been queued for PL!

Btw, I was able to get the time from the Checker, but for future reference, when you post a finished track to a thread, please include the length as well. Thanks!

Very enjoyable listening! Hoping you have a long and illustrious attachment to Librivox!
Section 21 just one note to fix.
Please shorten the silence at the beginning to .5-1 second as in all Librivox recordings.
Remember to include the new length of the recording in the post after you upload the edited version.
Thanks!
Christine

OK, will do in the future. I now know to make a note of the length numbers before I post. Thanks!

Section 19, Euphrasia, roughly 34m34s long.

I hope the sound quality is adequate. :)
Section 19. The sound is discernibly inconsistent but not so distracting as to need re record. You might look into the cause of that and ask someone like sjmarky or IntheDesert for tech help with this.
Notes for edit:
Reduce beginning silence to between .5 to 1 second.
0:22 Say "19" before "Euphrasia"
0:23 Missing words "A Tale of Greece" before first sentence of story.
33:50 should be "his countenance was calm and beautiful"; I heard "his countenance was calm and peaceful"
Thanks!
Christine
Hi. Sorry about the audio quality. I will try to improve this going forward. Here is the updated recording:

Kitty - upload complete:

That sounds ok. It does look like there's a high level of background noise though. When you do your recorded section, I would suggest applying some noise reduction to the whole track (if you need help on how to do this, let me know) to bring down that background noise to an acceptable level.
Thanks, Kitty - that was my first one, and I'm getting a new mic tomorrow. Should be better, and I'll do another 1-Min test and resubmit!
Kitty - just uploaded the redo:

Hello. It looks like my recording of the 1st part of The Brother and Sister is stuck in the red zone. Is there something I'm supposed to know which I'm missing?

That would be section 14.

0:17 Please say "14" before "Brother and Sister Part 2"'
1:54 should be "the ties of young hearts severed" all short sound e which means "cut off"; I heard long second e which means "harsh" with an ed at end.
Thanks!

Many thanks Christine!
The hopefully fixed section 14:
