Thank you, and welcome to the project.

I've added you in for this section, but please let me know how you would like to be listed in the LibriVox catalog -- real name, pseudonym or any nickname you would like. This is how you would be credited for all of your LV work.

Toni,

That was a lovely reading and I hope to hear a lot more of you around the forums!

Just one thing I'd ask you to address. At a couple of spots, the breaks were a bit long. If you should shorten those up, it would help the reading to flow. (And I wish I'd been able to see this man act in person ... the O'Neil role that he played sounds terrific!)

Please check length of silence at: 0:29, 4:28 and 7.24.

I have taken out the long pauses you mentioned and a few more that seemed too long. Hope this is better.

Leannie Rach,

Great reading on section 4. He's a new author to me, but we have 6 of his books here on LV. I'm going to check him out. https://librivox.org/author/2920

For PL comments, please cut the opening silence to 0.5-1 second.

And then extend the silence at the end to 5 seconds.

Thanks,
MaryAnn
