Hi Brian
As this project is now progressing can I make a claim to read Loge in Rheingold and Gunter in Twilight?

I could also be a Valkyrie if you have problems recruiting all 9 of them

You don't want to be the song-bird?

I would be delighted to be the Wood-Bird (Song-bird)

I'd be delighted to assign the part to you unless, of course, you are pulling my leg. I am somewhat dense at times (usually? almost always? oh, OK, I am dense) especially with the interpretation of , , , etc. You just can't make it too plain and simple for me, no matter hard you try! Please advise ...

Yes, I would also like to read the Wood-Bird.
Thank you for assigning me the 2 other roles.

Done and did - in about a minute or two - and it is me who should be thanking you for taking on another role on this project. Cheers.

Well, that looks like my cue.
I'll get us set up with a Magic Window, and be back shortly.

Update:
Alright Brian, your Magic Window is in place!

I have made a change in the naming scheme for the final files, but we can make adjustments as you'd like. The constraints are:
- Each section must be no more than 74 minutes long (at least one book seems like it might be longer)
- We need the final files to sort in the right order on listeners' devices (the books themselves aren't in the same alphabetical and chronological order)

The reader files have no such restriction.

There's time to figure out what the final file names should be, but we'll need to be sure the narrator knows to say multiple intros for any books that are split. It may be simplest to plan on each Scene/Act being its own file, but that's your decision.

MW is data filled and hopefully to your satisfaction. Please let me know what you would like me to correct.

I was a tad off on the original section count as I had forgotten to account for Wood-Bird and did not anticipate recorded pronunciation guide. I will fill the last two sections (and undoubtedly add some more) as the project progresses and we have a view / need for play / act / scene complete sections. Does that seem workable?

Have a great day! Looking forward to hearing from you as you have time and inclination.

Cheers.

Yes, that should work. If the character sections are all set up now, then I'll bump us on over to Dramatic Works soon - seeing we've got parts-PL, stage directions and editing all accounted for. Having you as both narrator and editor will greatly simplify the splitting of the final files, along whichever lines you decide.

Yes, that should work. If the character sections are all set up now, then I'll bump us on over to Dramatic Works soon - seeing we've got parts-PL, stage directions and editing all accounted for. Having you as both narrator and editor will greatly simplify the splitting of the final files, along whichever lines you decide.

Thanks so much! I don't believe I've missed any character sections but I'm sure that if I have someone will let me know and I will thank them for doing so. I am looking forward to the move to Wanted. I've noticed a reasonably good number of views - possibly %90 of them mine, but I don't really know - and I am encouraged. Truth is that I have gone fishing enough to know that nibbles don't always result in a catches. Fingers crossed!

[redrun]

Fair enough! I myself will almost certainly bite later... probably multiple times.
Without further ado, a-bump-ay we go!

[PaulWelford]

Hi Brian
You are a brave man to take on such a massive project

I have thought about this myself but thought I was rash enough doing Tristan and Isolde. Good Luck

If you want help with the PL I would be happy to do that although I have quite a lot of PL work on at the moment.

I know it is a bit early to be claiming but I would love to read Loge in Das Rheingold.

Hey Alan I just realised that I offered to DPL after you offerd PL help. My apologies - if you would rather keep your first claim staked please say so and I will happily relinquish.

[Scarbo]

May I claim Schwertleite?

[BrianFullen]

May I claim Schwertleite?

Yes, by all means. Thank you.

[AgnesRobert]

well before I just choose part/parts I was wondering if there was anyone you would rather I be? I imagine I am up for anything/s
