Closer, but still wrong start point. This time you skipped the LV intro and this text:tshoes76 wrote: ↑April 16th, 2024, 10:13 am OK, let’s try this again.

Good reading Alexa! I have just two comments of items that change the meaning in the text:tshoes76 wrote: ↑April 16th, 2024, 1:30 pm Here is Section 38 of Morley:

Written “excerpts”
Spoken “experts”
At 5:05
Written: “swam off to the Bolivar”
Spoken: “swam off the Bolivard”
Also, you left 8 seconds of silence at end. Better having too many then too few, but LV parameters request just 5 seconds.

I like your style a lot. Just a couple of comments:
At 20:12
“Salesmanized” spoken as if only associated with “(b) Stabilized”. I understand, from the layout on the page why one might think that, but actually I think it really identifies all three a-c items since they each are followed by the same curly bracket. So, perhaps read it after “(c) Energized”? Or before the list? Just a thought – not critical.
At the end “2024” was inserted into the silence portion, making the pause that followed only 1 or 2 seconds. Needs to be 5 seconds. Would be good to delete the brief pause before “2024” and increase the pause after.
I also think you're only supposed to give your name as the reader at the start or the finish, not both. But our MC or BC can correct me on that if needed.

--At 4:44
Written “reminiscent synopsis”
Spoken “recent synopsis”
--Again, your name should not be at both beginning and end.
--Also there is no pause at the end at all. Need to insert 5 seconds.

Thanks, Betsy. A few questions, since I’m new to this.
I assume I should make changes and resubmit, right?
Deleting something at the end is easy, but I’m not sure how to make a change in the middle of a clip. Is there a simple explanation or a wiki you can point me to that tells me how to do this?
