Really enjoyed both. Took longer than I planned due to me catching a cold/flu. Am now recovered.

I'd love to do another two chapters. I'll check what is available and send a request.

Kind regards

Here's the recording of Section 4 (I would've added the quotation page to the beginning later if it was needed):

The only thing I need you to do is insert “Part 1” at :19

Here's Section 4/Chapter 2 with the 'Part 1' bit around the 19s mark:

Glad to hear the recording was okay overall. I had a feeling I was whistling past the graveyard with that swallowing business. I'll try to fix/edit that next time around.

Ugh, so sorry to hear you were under the weather! Glad you’re feeling better.
PL NOTES:

Your text is great, only a few format things need fixing.

Preface
:25
You have your name in the wrong place. “Read by (name)” should go right after “…visit librivox.org” (see opening post). BUT, since you have your name/place/date at the end of the recording, reading your name here should be deleted. (Read it only in one place or the other.)

10:33, 23:25
Remove footnotes – see opening post instructions to omit footnotes
***
01
:23 – same thing about name as in preface
16:00 and 23:41, remove footnotes
***
FYI for both. Notes that you don’t need to do anything about now, just recommendations for the future:
1) In the preface section, the URL has Huxley capitalized; there should be no capital letters in file names. (MC will fix this on cataloging.)
2) Quote, end quote. If you have something in quotes, if it’s any length at all, it’s helpful to the listener to say “quote” at the beginning and “end quote” at the end. For a single word or very short phrase, maybe 4 words or less?, I just use my voice to emphasize, to indicate it’s kind of a little different piece of the text. At your discretion, use in text as well to enlighten the listener.
3) Footnotes will be deleted here, but on a project where you use them, say “footnote” at beginning and “end footnote” at end. You don’t have to say the number.

Just let me know what other sections you'd like. I’m happy to have you.

Sorry to be so picky, but you put "part 1" in the wrong place. It should read as in MW - "Chapter II, A Preliminary Interpretation, Pt. 1"

Thanks for correcting the URL. That will save the MC a bit of work down the line.

Hi Verla

Thank you for your prompt response and comments.

Below are the edited links to sections 00 and 01. As requested, I have removed my name at the beginning of the recordings (retained at the end) and deleted all footnotes.

Thank you for the information on the recording of footnotes and quotes, which I have noted for future use, where required and I apologise for the capitalisation error (now corrected for section 00), which was an oversight.

Section 00 - Duration 26:32 - https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/religionwithoutrevelation_00_huxley_128kb.mp3

Section 01 - Duration 23:30 - https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/religionwithoutrevelation_01_huxley_128kb.mp3

Please advise if any further changes required.

I would love to read sections 05 and 06, if ok

Kind regards

Sections 0 and 1 now PL OK

I have assigned you sections 5 and 6, thank you!

There's never a need to apologise - no worries! We all get PL Notes (yep, I record too). That's what the process is for.

You sound great as usual. Need a couple edits on each one:

Section 5
9:33
Text: “of all matter…”; heard: “of all living matter”
Near top of p. 75

It looks like there are 7 or 8 seconds of silence at the end. Please reduce to 5.

Section 6
1:46
You put an extra syllable into “vegetarianism,” pronouncing it “vegitenarianism” Is that British, or just an error?
Bottom of p. 81

8:41
Text: “causal”; heard: “casual”
p. 85, middle of paragraph that begins “As regards more…”

Hi Verla,

Noted. Will edit and re-upload thanks so much for stating the page and location.

Kind regards

Hi Verla

I'm pleased to confirm that all edits completed for sections 05 and 06. Here are new links.

Section 05 - Duration 16:15 - https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/religionwithoutrevelation_05_huxley_128kb.mp3

Section 06 - Duration 14:25 - https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/religionwithoutrevelation_06_huxley_128kb.mp3

Section 05:
- 09:33(P75 near top) "of all matter" correctly recorded
- Silence at end reduced to 5 secs.

Section 06:
- 01:46 (P81 bottom) "vegetarianism" correctly recorded - [for some bizarre reason I really struggled with this word. I kept tripping over my tongue with it and had rerecorded the sentence with it in several times; so it made me laugh when you noted that I had invented a new pronunciation for it - now I know why it just didn't sound right ]

- 08:41 (P85 middle para) "causal" correctly recorded.

Kind regards

Thank you,

Noah

Hi, nslowik - Welcome to librivox!

I see that you just posted your 1-minute test a few minutes ago. When you see [OK] at the beginning of the post title, that means you’re ready to claim a section and start recording. After you get your PL OK on the 1-minute test, come back to the forum and I'll assign the claimed section to you.

On your first claim request, provide the name you would like to use for the LibriVox catalog - that may be the same as or different from your screen name. Many people use their normal Real Life name or a nickname, but that's up to you. If you want a personal website linked in the catalog, also give us that URL.

Note, I can't assign the section without the above info.

The New Users FAQ post - viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1491 - has links to more information, including links to the Newbie Guide to Recording and other helpful stuff.

If you have questions just ask. We are a pretty friendly crowd.

Hi Verla,

Great! I will come back once I get the OK on my 1-minute test.

I will post it again later in my first claim request, but I would like to use Noah Slowik (my Real Life name) for the LibriVox catalog, and I don't have any personal website to be linked for the catalog.

Thank you! Will talk again soon.
