At 9:51: The line "...and Hal after her." is repeated. Please edit out one of the takes of that line and leave your best one.

This is why the PL is so important. Fixed that, thanks.

Chapter 5 ready for a listen.

Oh, boy this chapter!

My raw file is full of feline interruptions. I think I listened to my edit file about five times, every time catching a mispronounced or inaudible word, or a voice I didn't like. I would not be at all surprised if, even now, you find a few more corrections that I have missed.

Nevertheless, I'm having a blast. This is such a fun story, and I hope everyone's having as much fun with it as I am.

I'm ready to record the next available chapter, if no one minds.

It would appear that you tracked down all of the feline interruptions, as I didn't hear any in your final product. All I heard was a solid performance that really showed how much fun you're having with the story!

Chapter 5 is PL OK!

You've got Chapter 6.

Thanks,

I've been meaning to sign up for another chapter but I don't know if I can do it justice after your comments on the other readers.

I've uploaded chapter 6 for listening.

https://librivox.org/uploads/annise/blackerchiefdick_06_allingham_128kb.mp3

It has some sharper sibilants than I'd like, and if anyone has some tips for clearing those up (I mean, apart from diction lessons), I'd like to learn them.

For once, some appropriate cat sounds would have been appreciated, and nobody cooperated.

Once this one is cleared, I'm ready to take on any chapter you want to assign to me.

I did not notice any problematic sibilants when listening on fairly normal headphones, nor did any feline commentary make it into the final product.

Chapter 6 is PL OK! I look forward to your next chapter!

You can have chapter 8 if you would like.

Thanks,

Thank you; I will start recording as soon as my family visit ends.

Chapter 8 is ready for a listen, when VP has time. Hope the holiday was good (and safe).

That was a pretty long chapter! Wonderful performance as always though.

Chapter 8 is now PL OK!

Thank you. It took me a while to finish that one.

I believe I have time for another before the next holiday.

Do you want the next chapter or would you prefer a different one.

I am not particular, mleigh.
