Still new to all this so I hope everything is ok.

Cheers,

Thank you! Lovely job!

There are a couple of minor corrections needed.

First the beginning silence is a bit too long. We need it be no more then 1 second.
There is a mistake/repeat @14:57 "When I...when it" When it is the correct version.
And finally the end silence is too long at 12 seconds. We need the end silence to be 5 seconds.

If you could fix those and reupload, that would be great!

Hi Maria,

Thanks for the feedback - I'll get onto those corrections. Can I just confirm the length of the end silence though, as I thought I read that if the recording was over 30 minutes, then we needed to leave 10 seconds of silence at the end.

Damerel.

Hi Damerel,

Whoops! I see it still says that in the first post. Sorry about that! We changed it to just 5 seconds for all files awhile ago. I just copy the template for the first post for this project when I start a new one and didn't realize that was still in there.

(Proves that you read the instructions!

HI Bonita,

Thank you! Nice job!

There are a few things that need to be fixed.

First, there should be no more than 1 second of silence at the beginning - you have 5.
And at the end you left about 3 minutes of silence. That should be cut down to 5 seconds.

The wording on the intro and outro are a bit off.

The intro should be as follows:

Lord Bag of Rice, by Yei Theodora Ozaki" "This is a Librivox recording. All Librivox Recordings are in the public domain. For more information or to volunteer, please visit Librivox.org"

And the outro:

"End of Lord Bag of Rice, by Yei Theodora Ozaki"

If you wish, you may also say: "Read by...your name."

If you could fix those and reupload, that would be great!

Thank you! It is PL OK!

Just a note about gutenberg australia. They go by Australian copyright law, and we need to go by US law. They may use an edition that is not PD in the US, so we have to be careful.
That link was probably fine, but I switched to a gutenberg.org source just to be safe.

Thank you! Good job!

There are a couple of minor things at the very beginning that need to be fixed.

You said at the beginning "Chapter" The Sandy Cat. - Chapter needs to be cut out.
Also there are two seconds of silence at the beginning, and we need it to be no more then 1 second.

So if you could just snip off some silence and "Chapter" and reupload, that would be great!

Also, could my pseudonym (SilentCipher) be displayed instead of my username, against the recordings?

Cheers!!
