If we don't hear from you for three months, your project will be opened up to a group project as soon as a Book Coordinator can be found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to have it re-instated).

Aravis and Neeru,

You're all set up. It would be best if each of you on your first chapters read the FULL Librivox disclaimer, then on your subsequent ones you may use the abbreviated one. So, Both Chapter 1 and 2, will the full disclaimer and the rest the shorter ones, if you so desire. Thanks!

Enjoy your new project!

Mary Very Happy

You're very welcome. Very Happy We'll hang out here in the Launch Pad until tomorrow. Then I'll go ahead and move us over to Readers Found. Once you have a few files up, if a Proof Listener hasn't come by, we can advertise for one in the Listeners Wanted Forum.

I'm willing to be a Proof Listener (first time, though—I read the FAQ, but if there's anything else you see that I need to know, feel free to point it out).

Will I get notified when each chapter is ready for proof-listening? Is there an RSS feed or something for that? Or do I just check in every now and then?

Welcome!!! Very Happy

It's great that you've decided to join us!!!!

I don't know about RSS feed. I usually just check in from time to time . But we could PM you when we upload a chapter (you'd still have to check in though).

Elli

P.S.: If you want to know anything just post here or PM! Smile

Brenda,

Lushname had offered to PL for this project. We'll keep you in mind, though, if help is needed. I have put Lushnam in as proof listener.

Hi Lushnam,

Welcome Smile Thank you SO much for volunteering to PL for us! We hope you'll enjoy this work. If you're "watching this topic" and there are notifications sent to your email id every time the topic is updated, then there shouldn't be any problem. If not, we would gladly PM you every time we upload a chapter, no problem Smile Tell us what you'll feel comfortable with.

Hi Brenda,

Lushnam already volunteered. But thank you SO much for volunteering Cloud Nine

Hi Mary,

I was planning to update the window yesterday, but then... Rolling Eyes Will do it now Very Happy

Thanks, all!

EDIT: MW filled up!

I'll take some time getting to the recording though...
