Correct - the chapters are all complete and PL OK. I will have the summary/blurb posted in a day or two. I have several versions. You'd think after all the time I've spent on this project that it would flow off easily -- but I've had a bit of a writer's block. I want the blurb to be as captivating as this finished project has turned out to be (impossible, I know :wink: ).

The Story Girl by L.M. Montgomery (1874 - 1942).

Carlisle on St. Edwards Island may appear to the outside world to be a quiet, rural farming town, but to a group of 8 teens and tweens, its forests, fields, and orchards are places of enchantment, wonder, and adventure!

The Story Girl’s captivating tales toss Bev, Felix, Cecily, Felicity, Dan, Peter, Sara, and the Story Girl into mystical, magical, and spiritual worlds filled with princesses, sailors, mythological beings, and cosmological loves. The children find themselves running through ancient forests, shooting with the stars, sailing with treasure hunters, crossing rainbows with gods, spooking alongside the family ghosts, and discovering loves lost, loves found, and loves eternal. Through their real-life adventures, conflicts, and crises, the children struggle to find their voices, figure out who they are, and discover their place in the world – all while developing lasting bonds of friendship and love, during the mystical, magical, mesmerizing adventure of growing up. (Summary by TJ Burns).
Here is my summary. I updated the first post on page 1 to include this, but I thought I'd post it here too - to avoid confusion.

Yay! That was quick! Fantastic!

Tricia, would it be possible to put a cast list with links back to our personal Librivox pages on the archive pages?

Like they did here:

It's possible, but I don't do it. The description says "for reader information.... visit the LV catalog page". We don't list all the readers for regular group projects, so I dislike listing them for DR/DWs.

But if you insist, I'll put it in.

I'd really like it. It makes it much easier to do a search on Archive. And it's a nice touch for the readers to be credited. Some people will just listen online from Archive.org and then they can easily see the readers names. :D

Now I just need to upload the cover. Have I understood correctly that you have already pre-claimed it for me? I didn't see it on the claims list.

The claims list updates every couple hours, so it may not be up there yet. You can go ahead and upload the cover at any time now that it's cataloged; it doesn't have to show up on the list first.
