Thank you, Jade!

There is one repeat @3:24 "I knew the sugar wouldn't hurt the tablecloth".

I will sort that - Sorry I recorded this just before I started to come down with a heavy cold - So I won't be recording for a few days at least, but I keep all my recordings.

Repeat removed - well spotted - Hope this cold goes soon so I can get back in the swing.

I'm new to volunteering for Librivox, but I'd love to read chapters 18 and 19!

Thank you so much for what you guys do!

HI Norah,

Welcome to LibriVox! 18 and 19 are yours! Please read the first post of this thread carefully.

Please let me know under which name or pseudonym you'd like to appear in the LibriVox catalogue. It can be your real name forum name or a pseudonym ~ whatever you prefer!

Also, since this is your first recording, we ask that you send in a 1-minute test recording. This is not an audition, it's just to make sure the sound quality and the recording settings are all right - often things can be improved at the outset that are difficult to fix later. Please go to https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=1-Minute_Test to find out what to record for your 1-minute test, and how to upload the recording. In the LibriVox Uploader, please select 'tests - tests' from the MC drop-down, and then post your test recording in the "Post Your 1-Minute Test Recording Here" forum, rather than in this thread - you'll get feedback more quickly there.

Thanks, and have fun!

Thank you! You got the tech specs correct on this one!

There are a few PL Notes.

First the silence at the beginning is too long at 2 seconds. We need it to be no more then 1 second.
There is a repeat @5:08 "of the"
There is a repeat @8:17 "the other Bobbsey twins, etc...."
And at the end there needs to be 5 seconds of silence. You have 2.

Also, when you reupload, please name the file bobbseywashington_17_hope_128kb

Ok, I'll go back and fix the edits tomorrow. I thought I had them but it's been awhile.
