Thank you! I've marked this Ready for Spot PLFigureofSpeech wrote: ↑March 7th, 2024, 8:03 pm
I added the extra 1 second of silence at the end. Please let me know if I added to much and need trim back.

Thank you sooo much for the compliment! I was a bit worried about my first reading so I tried to pick a book and chapter that I would find fun. I really enjoyed the author's writing style. He truly touched on the humor, delicacy, romance, charm, and even the religious and political importance of kisses. I appreciated the variety of perspectives he took on just this one topic.
I'm looking forward to more fun reads! Feel free to let me know if you've got any suggestions for fun reads in either English or Spanish.
Thanks again,
Claudia
It is hard to make suggestions because individual preferences are so varied. But, so is our selection of active projects. We have everything from poetry and plays, to children's books and science. But, you might take a look at this project:
Readings from Modern Mexican Authors, by Frederick Starr (1858 - 1933)
viewtopic.php?t=101323
Of course, you're free to read more in this project.

Such a touching chapter and beautifully read as well.
I've only got one change for you to make and then it should be PL OK.
please add about 1 second of silence to the end so that there are about 5 seconds of silence
Look forward to hearing more from you.
Thanks,
M

The work on Modern Mexican Authors came to my mind as well. I would also love to hear more from you on this project.
There is also another new project just listed: that is in Spanish, Anillos: Prosas de Pablo Neruda y Tomás Lago that might be of interest.
Thanks,

Correction: I'd missed checking the length of silence at the end, and of course it was short by 1 sec.
Here's the revised upload of Chapter 1, with a new length (21:13):

I really loved the way you chose to read this section. You did a terrific job. This is PL OK.Keira1300 wrote: ↑March 27th, 2024, 9:10 pm Correction: I'd missed checking the length of silence at the end, and of course it was short by 1 sec.

One comment to consider for future recordings. The volume, at over 91 dB, is on the high side of the acceptable range. You might want to drop it a couple of dB to get it around 89 dB which is the ideal LibriVox volume.
I see you are in for another section. I am looking forward to hearing you read that one as well.
Thanks,
M
Hello, here, finally, is Chapter 11:

Sorry for the delay in getting this one completed. Hoping to return to the Magic Window in a few weeks to check on chapter availability, after I've finished other current assignments (an Ignatius of Loyola work).
(Please let me know if you want the db lowered in my previous Chapter 1; I'd be happy to re-upload it.)
Thank you.

I've put this in the MW Ready for PL.
I think chapter 1 is fine.
I'm sure there will be open chapters when you're ready. Just had to orphan two of them.

Volume for Chapter 11 is spot on.
There is just one small addition needed:
Please add about 0.5 seconds of silence to the start so that there is between 0.5 and 1 second of silence.
You did a grand job on such a delightful chapter.
Thanks,
M
Thank you so much, and sorry about that missing interval of silence at the beginning (normally the first thing I check). The revised version of Chapter 11 has been uploaded:
