ooo, I would love to do Jane Watson, if you're not looking for a rapid production pace.

(If you are wanting to move very quickly, I can do any of the "bit" women you'd like, instead)

Fancy some fun character recording? Small parts needed in these dramatic novels: Clouds of Witness | Ivanhoe (DR)

I am very happy for you to read Jane, Lynette! I’m content for this project to proceed at a regular pace.

Mrs. Edwards Chapter 2:
0:53 please rerecord this line "Your club would be better fitted for an invalid,". The word invalid was pronounced incorrectly. It sounds like the other meaning of "invalid" which is spelled the same way.

1:44 Not sure if this is too picky but "I like to get a good seat by the fire, you know, Mr. Musgrave," the second comma pause is missing. It sounds to me like she is asking Mr. Musgrage if he knows Mr. Musgrave without that second comma pause.

2:09 Missing word "the". Should be "How came you not to dance with either of the Mr. Tomlinsons, Mary?"; I heard "How came you not to dance with either of Mr. Tomlinsons, Mary?"

2:23 Missing word "had". Should be "and I had heard you say two minutes before that you were not engaged?"; I heard "and I heard you say two minutes before that you were not engaged?"

Okay. I checked this with Checker and found that it is 89.9 dB. What do you want me to change?

Sounds very picky. Will do what I can.
