Hi Anna, It's off to a good start! Chapter 2 is PL OK. For chapter 1, there's a repetition at 18.20-18.28: 'a welcoming smile on her face' Checking the year of death doesn't sound morbid. Or if it is, I do the same thing. I'm just waiting for a couple of authors to come into the public domain in the...

Hello Anna, This looks like an exciting book, and the author's Wiki page has intrigued me. I'm willing to DPL (I want to know what happens!), but I must warn you that I'll be a bit slow. Are you reading from a hard copy? I didn't spot the novel on PG Canada or Australia, or Adelaide, and google very...

That was quick! Thank you!

I was hoping I could use a little sound effect. That's good news. I'll start experimenting.

To a prospective MC: this won't be a terribly fast moving project. It took months to find an affordable copy of the book, and I'm more than happy to sit on the launch pad for weeks. To a prospective DPL: please make sure you know what you're getting into! Ros's cult following is based on her reputat...

Fumes of Formation by Amanda McKittrick Ros (*1860 - † 1939) This project is now complete! All audio files can be found on our catalog page: https://legamus.eu/blog/?p=927 Amanda McKittrick Ros's poems and prose are unique, and her determination to write saw her publish two novels and two volumes o...

Thank you both very much! It's exciting to see my first (very short) Legamus solo up, and so quickly!

That's terrific! I'm very happy with it. Thank you for being the MC, DPL and cover artist all in one.

Wow! Thank you very much! Good idea about the title - please do change it to The Gardener and The Burden. Thank you for asking, but I think I'm okay not recording a credit for myself to add to the file. I know some cover designers put the reader's name on the cover, and that can be a nice touch. As ...

Hi Hokuspokus,

The file has been uploaded for whenever:

Thanks again for PLing, and have a good weekend!

To prospective DPLs - standard PL is absolutely fine.

I've chosen a short project for my first Legamus solo. I'm hoping to have it ready for Armistice Day, but if not, well, it'll be ready in good time for next year.

The Gardener and the Burden by Rudyard Kipling (*1865 - † 1936) This project is now complete! All audio files can be found on our catalog page: http://legamus.eu/blog/?p=903 Helen Turrell's life has been one of respectability and duty, and she adopts and raises her illegitimate nephew upon her scap...

Hurrah!

Please don't hold this collection up for my speculative thing - it definitely won't be ready in the next week or anything. It's just useful to know so I don't create extra work for the MC either way.

Thanks for such a quick PL and a very easy first time submitting something to Legamus!

Hi Hokuspokus, I have three short poems for the collection, for whoever wants to PL, whenever they get a chance. I realise most people are on Librivox and things move a bit more slowly here! The poems are all by Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936), and all are taken from Debits and Credits (1926): https://e...

No worries! It's all sorted now, and my account's activated, and it's all grand. The main page for ebooks@Adelaide is: https://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/. There's a little copyright logo at the bottom, but on the ebooks themselves I've not noticed any attempt to claim copyright - just a large notice th...

Hello! I think my first message was marked as spam, so I'll try again:

In choosing an English-language text for the collection, is Adelaide allowed or is PGA preferable?

Erin

I've a question - is there a preference for PG Australia as a source over the Adelaide ebook site? I don't know if I've overlooked Adelaide on the book suggestions thread, but I'd like to ask before recording anything.
