I wish to record the Sapphire story book.

That seems a nice first solo- but first , make sure your test is right a then pick up a couple of sections from the reader's wanted of books that interest you - that gives you a chance to work with a book coordinator and proof listener so it isn't as steep a learning curve - you can learn a bit about recording without having to manage the coordinating bits and it can be lonely in a Solo thread.

added - I should have said ......
When you are ready to do a Solo - go over to the launch pad and read the stick at the top of the thread about doing a Solo , there is a bit of work to do setting things up.

I see the Jade one has been adopted now.
