(Why do we need 5 seconds of silence on every recording? Becuz some mp3 players will cut off early; something about the mp3 decode processing they do is always a couple seconds late - they need the silence so the processing will go all the way to the end of the meaningful recording content. The CD player in my wife's car does this cutoff thing and always misses the last couple words in each chapter. Maddening.)
Thanks, Todd

I was very relieved that I didn't have to rerecord and that the corrections were minimal!

I'll be out for a bit on this last weekend of April, but still checking in as I get the chance. I will try to follow up on Monday, with anything I can't do on the go.

Not at all, these things happen even when folks play very close attention, and that's exactly why we have our proof-listening process. Chapter 13 is now PL OK!gracesilvey wrote: ↑February 1st, 2024, 2:29 pm Sorry about that - here it is corrected!

May I claim the next two sections - chapter 14 and 15a?
Certainly!gracesilvey wrote: ↑February 1st, 2024, 3:48 pm May I claim the next two sections - chapter 14 and 15a?
If you run into anything, have any questions about the division of chapter 15, etc., just let me know.

Thank you! I will not be able to record anything until next Tuesday, but I'll be back then and hopefully be able to get both of them to you! Have a great weekend!
Chapters 8 and 9 are now open for claims.

@23:19, missing the phrase "especially among the children"
Henty tends to write sentences that run on for an entire paragraph, but you've done an excellent job of navigating them! I'm also excited to hear about Miss Harcourt soon.
