I'm glad that you like my idea. I think it may come in handy to those who are just beginning their adventure with recording, like me.

Sounds great. Hearing all the nice things LVers have to say about each other has put me in a really good mood. (And Algy's praise of one of my poems made my day!)

MARTIN GEESON · Post by **MARTIN GEESON** » November 23rd, 2011, 11:08 pm

Many, many thanks to you, Bob, and all involved

Didn't think I could feel any prouder of Librivox, then listened to the new Podcast and overflowed -

Your kind comments are a great tonic to me personally, after a difficult year. Bless you.

I absolutely loved your contributions to this podcast and the last one, Martin. Your most interesting and erudite comments on Venus in Furs really intrigued and delighted me. As I mentioned before, I think you have found a wonderful niche here in the podcasts. The poetry and drama podcasts I am planning will really need your voice. I soon will be posting/private messaging a list of questions and topics that could serve as a springboard for contributions. But feel free to contribute anything at all that relates to the theme.

I too loved the variety of voices heard, both praisers and praised. I was really pleased that so many people responded to the theme and sent such interesting contributions.

Do keep an eye out for the new Podcast Planning sticky coming soon to the top of the Volunteers Wanted: Other Projects Forum.

Cheers,
Bob

Thanks, Esther. And please, no apologies necessary.

We were fine without statistics.

I greatly enjoyed #118, Bob. Very professional production and a delightful variety of speakers.

With the constant (and now getting extremely boring) proviso that I am using an out-of-date browser on a system from the previous millennium, am I right in saying that the announcements for podcasts 117 and 118 have not appeared on the home page http://librivox.org?

If I am right, this could be changed by filing them under 'News' as well as the other tags (any admin can do this).

If I am wrong, just ignore me.
