I had trouble finding the line of Lord Ingram in chapter 20, could anyone pinpoint it to me?

the chpater 17 is under this link: http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ek/janeeyre_lordingram_17.mp3
and chapter 18 is here: http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ek/janeeyre_lordingram_18.mp3

I'm sorry if I jumped any steps, I was in the verge of recording.

Andre,

Your technical specifications were OK in Checker, but I would recommend that you still do a 1-Minute test for your own use so more technologically savvy people than me can let you know if there's anything minor you might want to fix.

I have added you to the Catalog and the Magic Window.

The Lord Ingram line for Chapter 20 is:

Lord Ingram: "Is it fire?"--

The Google docs are searchable to help you locate your role.

Thanks for joining the project.

Yes, Hannah is available. I see that you've already completed your 1-Minute Test Recording, so just let me know under which name or pseudonym you'd like to appear in the LibriVox catalogue (your username or another name) and if you want to link to a personal website/blog. Once I have that info, I will put you in the Magic Window!
my forum name (lampie1970) is fine. Thanks!

Ok I'll check the 1-minute test and get back to here.

That's fine- I would just ask that you try and get your role completed by the deadline of two months from when you claimed the role (which was July 4th, so by September 4th, please)

Hi again,
I've PL'ed Jane files chapters 36 and 37

Chapter 36 is PL OK

Chapter 37 has a little difference
"At 27:19 I heard “must I” for “I must” in “Then I must leave you sir, to go to him?”

Everything else is super. More PL'ing tomorrow.

Edit!

I also PL'ed Lord Ingram files Chapters 17 and 18 because they're so short. Both of them are good to go.

Thanks, Betty! I'm having a crazy week, so I will fix Chapter 37 and PL the new Rochester recording this weekend.

Hi,
I've PL'ed the last Jane file, chapter 38 and there's a glitch:

At 10:38 Missing “will be” in

"No fear of death will darken St. John’s last hour: his mind will be unclouded, his heart ""will be"" undaunted, his hope will be sure, his faith steadfast."

Everything else is terrific.

A serious ending to the novel, I think. Happy for Jane, but tempered by realities of life.

Thank you! I've updated the Magic Window.

Betty, now that all the Jane recordings are done being PL'd, shall I step back and let you resume the occupation at which you are so brilliant for the rest of the project?

I will get those two final chapters fixed tomorrow!

musicalheart1 · Post by **musicalheart1** » August 18th, 2012, 9:39 pm

Well, I got eager and fixed the Jane recordings tonight instead

Chapter 37 (now 33:19) - http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ek/janeeyre_jane_37.mp3

Chapter 38 (now 10:55) - http://upload.librivox.org/share/uploads/ek/janeeyre_jane_38.mp3

Thanks, Betty, for all your kind words about the Jane recordings and I'm glad you were struck by the end of the novel!

I decided to push forward with two of the shorter St. John sections tonight, just to keep things moving while I work on the others. I had not truly appreciated just how tongue-twisty some of St. John's lines were before starting to read them aloud!

Thank you!!! MW updated.

They are, aren't they? I suppose it's because St. John is meant to be quite the orator

Betty, I figured that I'd take care of PL'ing the Bessie files myself, since the reader's two month deadline is tomorrow.
