Section 19 is PL ok. This part is hilarious!! Great job!
Ha! Thank you. It was rather amusing. I loved the part where he carried the rude Dr. on his back across the snow :lol:

BTW, I noticed this is still sitting in ready for PL. Just didn't want it to get overlooked later on :)
Cheers,
Claire

Hi! Welcome to Librivox and Welcome here. Before claiming and recording a section you need to complete the one minute test for compliance with the Librivox technical specifications. Info on doing that is here: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php/1-Minute_Test. Wait to get some feedback and an official OK on your test recording.
Let me know how you want to be listed in the LibriVox catalog -- real name, pseudonym or any nickname you wish. This is how you will be credited for all of your LV work. Then I'll assign you this section. It is a bit of a learning curve to start but just post here if you have any questions. I will monitor to support you.
Hope to hear from you soon!

What a wonderful story, and so well written for saying aloud!

I have recorded Section 12 (and must edit it before upload).

May I add reading Section 31?

Thanks, Todd

Hello again!
Sorry for the late response but I have finally gotten all the technicalities sorted out and have gotten my 1 minute test recording approved.
If the slots are still open I was wondering if I could get to start recording sections 16 and 17.
Thank you for your support!

P.S. As for my preferred catalog name, I would very much appreciate it if you could save me as my real name, the same one as my id(YobumLEE).

Have a wonderful day :D

Section 11 Excellent reading!! Just one small thing to fix. Please resave the recording in your software at 128 kbps bit rate which the checker says it is not currently and is required to meet Librivox specification. Then export and reupload.
Thanks!

I am so sorry, I have tried to fix the bit rate by setting the export to 128 constant for the export but even though it says it is exporting at 128 when I try putting it through the Checker it still says it is the wrong rate. Not sure what is going on on my end! Has this problem ever come up? I will try to get some tech help
