Thanks, Bart and Betty.

I will do a little research before recording, so I don't have to go through the process and find it's copyrighted.

Hi Jenny
You say this is your second contribution, but I couldn't find any contribution under your name kittenmittens.
So I made you a personal page. Could you please check it?

Thanks for your contribution.
Betty will listen to it soon.

I did a recording for the weekly poetry thread, but I don't think it was approved or put up yet.

Thank you for making the page -- only correction that I could see was that my name is actually spelled Jinny, not Jenny.

Thank you!

Name edited. Welcome to LibriVox!
I'm sure your contribution for the weekly poetry will be accepted. Those weekly projects always take a bit longer to process.

Hi,
I've PLed the two new stories

A Midnight Fable is a little soft. Otherwise it is OK. Bart can you check the volume please, you will now fore sure whether it's okay.

The Terrible Old Man is PL OK!

Two very good readings and stories!

Indeed the volume was fairly low. I amplified the recording and I also renamed it.
It's now here: http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ba/ghohor014_moonlight_fable_cc.mp3

Thanks for helping with the volume issue, Bart and Betty.

Hi Bart:

If not too inconvenient, could you increase the volume of "The Unknown" by Guy de Maupassant. It would sound much better. Increasing the volume of the H.G. Wells story dramatically increased the quality.

Thanks a lot.

I have increased the volume by 4 dB.
