Thanks! A question - there is one more chapter and a brief Afterword. I thought I read somewhere that I can combine these - is that correct? So I would say "chapter 10 and Afterword" instead of just Chapter 10. Please confirm.

Of course, the Foreword was also brief and I did that one separately, but could combine them pretty easily, if consistency for these is preferred.

Yes, if you're combining them, I think it's a good idea to say "chapter 10 and afterword" at the beginning of the intro.
As for the foreword, that is absolutely your choice; feel free to go back and combine it or feel free to leave as is.

Chapter 10 and Afterword is posted. https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/thoughtpoweritscontrolandculture_12_besant_128kb.mp3

I will combine the Forward and Introduction next, and then it should be done.

All great with this file; it just needs additionally the phrase "End of Thought Power, Its Control and Culture, by Annie Besant." at the end, as it's the last section of the audio book.

OK new posted file - https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/thoughtpoweritscontrolandculture_12_besant_128kb.mp3

I want to combine the Forward and Introduction in the same way but how would I fix the numbering system of the files? Do I have to rename all the files?

I have the file combined Foreward and Intro here: https://librivox.org/uploads/rapunzelina/thoughtpoweritscontrolandculture_01_02_besant_128kb.mp3

I named it 01_02 but don't know how to post it on the Magic Window - really don't want to rename all the files - any other way to fix it?

I can fix the filenames and I think it'll be alright! I can check these files a little later and if all is good I'll proceed with cataloguing!

Is this the text you'd like to use as the summary?:

This book presents a clear and systematic study of the nature of thought from the Theosophical perspective. Its study will help the reader gain a deeper knowledge of one's mental nature and how to master this important power to stimulate one's own spiritual growth and for the helping of humanity.

The audiobook is ready here: https://librivox.org/thought-power-its-control-and-culture-by-annie-besant/

Let me know if everything looks good with the summary and file order.

Wow - so cool! The summary looks great.

Only thing is - I hate the very beginning of the Introduction - my voice is this halting loud sound. I rerecorded just that small part, and fixed just a phrase soon after "the garments with which he is clothed" since I had stumbled on that. I probably would rerecord more but this is the part I most hated, and especially being the very beginning of the Intro. I don't know if its relatively easy to replace the first file but if so, it would leave me feeling much better about it. The new time is 12:59. Let me know.
