Welcome, Esmeralda! Do you speak Spanish?
Waiting for a clever signature line to occur to me.

Cheers, VERLA

Hello everyone, John Owen here. Audiobook listening is pretty much all I do now to read books and I'm very interested in learning how to narrate them, perhaps for ACX someday. I figured this would be a great place to start. Thanks for all the support I've received so far with the submissions I've posted.

Hi John, Welcome to Librivox!

First order of business, you have appended this introduction of yourself to that of another person. Your intro should be posted at the top level of the "New Here?..." forum.

Go to the forum, where there is a long list of all the people who are posting introductions, and click the "New Topic" button at the top. Paste your same intro into the new message.

If your intro is appended to someone else's, people are unlikely to see it, and I know there are others out there who might want to welcome you!

Oops...so so sorry. Thanks for the correction. I have now done that. Please confirm I did it correctly.
Thx.

¡Bienvenida, Esmeralda!

Siempre me entusiasma saber que ha llegado otro(a) hispanohablante a LibriVox. En este momento hay tres proyectos en español que tal vez te interesen. El siguiente hilo contiene todos los proyectos en idiomas que no son inglés, y allí encontrarás los actuales en español:
viewforum.php?f=60
Hay hispanohablantes de varios países acá; vas a conocer a gente verdaderamente genial.

Puedes empezar con tu prueba de 1 minuto.
https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Prueba_de_1_minuto
No es una audición, sino una oportunidad para averiguar que todas tus configuraciones técnicas cumplen con los requisitos de Librivox.

Despúes de grabar la prueba, uno la sube para que alguien la chequee.
viewtopic.php?t=90874

Diviértete aprendiendo - esta es una comunidad amistosa, y todos están disponibles para responder a cualquier duda.

Repito, ¡bienvenida! Y haznos saber de necesitar algo de ayuda.
