Oops! Glad you asked.
How did I not get that posted?

Anyway, you'll now find this info in the Notes field for each section.
If anything is not clear, let me know.

Thanks! Here's part 1. Let me know if the voice is o-k to be doing, this is my first humorous-style work to be involved in.

Thank you!

I just did a quick check, which I like to do with readers who are new to me.
Well, I absolutely love your voice and reading style for this!

I will let you know that your volume is right at the top of our acceptable range, so you might think about adjusting that.
Then, you have almost five seconds of pause between the end or your narration, and "End of Section." About 1 - 1 1/2 second would be better. Then after that you've left about 45 seconds where we need only 5. Oh, yes, your opening silence is about 1.5 seconds, and we need only between 0.5 and 1.0 seconds.

Lomond will be along to give you a full report, but you will need to upload this again with some revisions.
Just use the same file name, and be sure to give us the file length as mm:ss which will help us a lot.

Greetings -

Your DPL has no problem with the reading of Sections 1 and 2. Great voice, fun to listen to...

Section 2 is definitely PL OK.

Section 1 seems to be missing a paragraph at the very beginning. The paragraph begins "Gentle readers, wet your lips...".

Looking forward to listening to your next section.
