Hi,

I'd like to read "Grant" and "The Death of Sherman." Do you want me to read the notes?

I'll put you in for these two sections, and you can read the notes if you like.

Yes, you should say the poet's name as other readers are doing.

I would like to claim Sections 34, 49 and 62.

I think there is a spelling mistake in the MW, Section 49 - "Statue".

Thanks,
Bruce.

Good afternoon! Welcome to Librivox.

It is often a good idea to start with doing the 1-minute test as there are technical settings that our trainers will like to review with you. Please let me know when you can proceed with this very simple recording (it can be nearly anything in the public domain) and I will get this section (63) assigned for you right away.

Thanks!

Also, I should mention that in the MW for section 62, the poet's middle name should be "Kinsolving".
And (sorry for being picky) but in the MW for section 34, the poet's middle initial should be a capital "H".

Thanks,
Bruce.

Not sure what's going on with this project. :hmm:
Anyone proof listening?

So, I've been holding off, but need to clear these from my reading list.
So, here is the first one.

Also, I don't know if we are reading the side notes, but I included it; seemed relevant. But it is easy to cut if not wanted.

Like Larry I am wondering what is happening on this project, there are a lot of sections ready for PL but no DPL :?
I have read 3 poems already but will hold off doing any more until there is some sign of progress.
