Welcome Mike

Your test meets LibriVox specs, so well done. There is however too much room echo. You need a deader recording space.

You can find advice on improving issues like room echo in the Librivox wiki:

Please make a new test recording and post it in a reply to this message. I will come back and review it for you.

Still a lot of reverb. You need a much deader recording space. You also sound rather far from your mic. Should be 8 to 12 inches.

Try to improve your space some more. Even blanket tents and cushion forts can really help. As it is, your audio is hard to listen to.

Try again?
