I divided book 5 chapter 3 diffrently. Please update the magic window accordingly. The first part will stay as it was, because it's clear when it should end.
Part 2
begins with
“I might introduce you to all sorts of other contrivances..."
Ends with
"the movement of her limbs."
4867 words.
Part 3
begins with
"do you wish to speak to me"?
ends with
"he had now told—the fatal lie which he reiterated when she put her question for the second time".
4409 words.
part 4
begins with
"She looked at him, deceived by the last man on earth whom she would have suspected of deception—the man whom she had deceived herself".
3136 words.

Hi David,
thank you very much for section 5. Can you tell me it's duration? I hope you enjoyed reading for Armadale. Would you like to read more sections from this book?

Hi Stav - Duration 26:19. I've sneakily made the entries in the magic window.

I may take some more sections later, if they're still available, but I need to clear my commitments to other projects first.

Wow! thank you, David. You know? I like the idea that you split the chapter according to it's contant, and not nececeraly according to the way I suggested. That is a great idea.

Can someone enter chapter 24 to the magic window? Please make sure that you enter the second draft, it's louder. I hope the second draft of chapter 23 is there too. Can't listen just now.

Stav - I've entered 24 in the magic window. 23 should be the louder version, as it was uploaded with the same filename.

Stav - I've got Section 52 done, but I am using Audacity and am having trouble downloading Lame to convert my recording over to a MP3. I'll keep trying and post it as soon as I can. MaryAnn

BTW - I moved the cutoff between 52 and 53 down two paragraphs - that seemed more appropriate as it then cut at the end of a diary entry.

Hi Mary Anne,
it's good to hear from you. I am happy that you wrote to us about your problem, I am sure someone here knows how to help you. I am happy that you found a better way to split the chapter, just write to me whehre it starts and where it ends. We will update the magic window accordingly. Thank you.

Stav, I've made both changes in the magic window - Nadine's chapter 25, and MaryAnn's new split of 52/53. (Didn't change the word counts, just the end and beginning lines).

Hey Stav. I got Lame this morning and got the conversion done. I still want to do a final listen before I post.

But here's a silly question - I have a typo in the ID3 tag. :roll: Is there a way I can correct that? Or is it easier just to reconvert the file and watch my spelling the next time?
