Part 3 ready for PL. The record long sentence so far: 137 words. Ol' HP just didn't like periods.

Hi Mark,
Section 2 is PL OK!

I may be late in PLing the sections for a while,
There's a big plumbing problem with my house and that's taking up much of my time, unfortunately.

Hi Mark,
I managed to PL section 3 and that's PL OK as well. Very well read.

This story is indeed getting dark in tone.

Yeah, HPL wasn't known for his light comedies.

Part 5 ready for PL.

Hi,
I've PL'ed Part 5 and there's one spot that might need redoing:

at 11:26 a little mixup in editing, I heard “other than the other” in "on the jutting eminence, while the other still bore a fantastic conical monument carved out of the solid rock.."

Not a big deal if you choose to leave it as is. Everything else is great.

Also Part 6 ready for PL.

Hi,
Part 5 is all set.

and Part 6 is PL OK too.

I hadn't remembered Lovecraft's vocabulary and writing style. It does make it harder for narrators, that's for sure.

7 & 8 ready for PL.

Hi,
Sections 7 and 8 are both PL OK!

My goodness, you're getting through this solo quickly (and marvelously.)

9 ready for PL.

Hi,
Ive PL'ed Section 9 and there are a couple of glitches around the same point in the file:

At 3:02 missing “No such structure” in “No such structure came to our minds as we recalled our flight,

At 3:11 I couldn’t hear "Ice rift” clearly.. kind of sounded like ife rift in “or that it had been totally shattered in an ice rift we had noticed.

Everything else sounds really good.
