Here is the link to Chapter 6.
Hello! Very well read, however I do have a few areas that need to be addressed please.

Around 9:04 - heard "I've had a list-letter from Mr. Dawson..." should be I've had a letter from Mr. Dawson..."
Around 1:44 - stumble during "from what source the wherewithal was to come" (pronounced where-with-all)
From 1:05 - 1:11 - Noticeable volume drop during: "By-and-by, Rose came to the door, wanting to know if her cousin had nearly finished her letter."

There does need to be an ending statement after you've finished the chapter, followed by 5 seconds of silence. I've pasted it below but you'll also find this on page 1 under the Magic Window (MW).

"End of section 6." [Optional, and if not stated in the intro: "Read by your name, city, date."]

Once you have made the corrections, please be sure to re-upload the corrected file, under the same file name, and post the link back in this thread so I can double check those few areas mentioned. In the event of any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!
Here is the edited link to Section 6.

Hello! Another very nice reading. Just a few edit please:

Around 5:42 - Text message alert (?) heard during "But I agree with your uncle. I think, perhaps, your aunt is mistaken; "
Around 2:04 - repeat of "through which she had to pass on her way home,"
Around 1:06 - Text message alert (?) heard during "Mavis had been supplied with an old pair of skates which had belonged to Rose, who had bought a new pair the previous season. And during the morning, her uncle gave her, her first lesson in skating; "
Cheers,
Claire

Hi Janet! Welcome to Librivox and congrats on your first recording! You have a very nice pacing your reading was very well done. There are no changes to make to the content, but we do need to say the intro and ending. These are located on the first page of the thread, but I have also copied them below for reference.

Intro - Please leave a half to full second of silence before the intro:

"Chapter 5 of A Song-Bird. This is a LibriVox recording. All LibriVox recordings are in the public domain. For more information or to volunteer, please visit librivox.org." [Optional: "Read by your name."] "A Song-Bird, by Eleanora H. Stooke. Petty Jealousy."

Ending - after the chapter is completed, please state:
"End of chapter 5." [Optional, and if not stated in the intro: "Read by your name, city, date."]
then leave 5 seconds of silence after the ending.

Once these have been added to the recording, please re-upload the file under the same name, provide the new run time, and post in this thread so we can do a quick check to make sure the edits all sounds great.

Thank you!

Larry - I wasn't able to open the original file from the MW, but I could listen to it from the thread post.
Cheers,
Claire
