September update:
Still working on the recordings. Things are going slowly due to work and moving into a new home.

Our move is done, but we've scheduled an appt with the electrician to have all of the outlets updated from two-prong to three-prong (it's an old building).
Once this is done, I can set up my new recording studio.
I predict that the entire audiobook will not be completed by 12-31-23, are there any adjustments that I should make on this thread to reflect that?

Thanks for the update.
No, you don't have to make adjustments - unless you want to edit the first post (use the little pencil icon in the top right corner of the post) to put in a different target date. It's not required, but it might help your pride.

Hi there
I just realised you had a heap of sections for PL. Sorry. Working thru them now.
They are all great readings.
Sections 0 -2 are all PL OK.
Section 3, Misery, has an extra "done" included at 0:44. It's pretty minor as you say it so fast it hardly affects the rhythm but I thought I'd let you know in case you want to correct it.
Also - a suggestion, these sections are extremely short, I think too short as the standard LV stuff at start and end takes up a disproportionate amount of time compared to the poems. I'd suggest merging them into one or a few sections instead.

I think you mis-pronounced a word five times in the last verse of section 7 Po' Boy Blues. If it was just the way you say it I'd leave it alone (per LV rules) but in the last / sixth instance you pronounce it correctly. The correct word is weary but I hear reary.

At the very end of section 8, Homesick Blues, you say "end of section 8" and then start to say another word... at 1:11

In Section 10, Brass Spitoons, you don't mention the title at the start.
