Re: [eng/SOLO] Short Stories I by F. Scott Fitzgerald - vik


[...] (Looks like I need to split up several other proof listened stories now as Viktor has put in suggestions where they should be split ...)

Maybe I get credit where I don't deserve any - I never added any suggestions, they were there already. I just added the lines for the Pat Hobby stories ...

Re: [eng/SOLO] Short Stories I by F. Scott Fitzgerald - vik

Here are the word counts of the other stories, a bit rounded - I just copied the texts into LibreOffice Writer and looked at the status bar or the properties.

EDIT: list moved to the first page.

Re: [eng/SOLO] Short Stories I by F. Scott Fitzgerald - vik

Hello Adrian,
I assume these Pat Hobby stories are OK from a copyright point of view (that is, the only author is Fitzgerald). I don't see any information to the contrary. Then it's completely up to you! If you want to read them, I can do the word counts.

Re: solo [ENGLISH] The Guermantes Way by Marcel Proust - vik

Right. As I'm not a copyright expert, I tried a very minimal change:
"but is still protected by copyright in the USA and some other countries."
to
"but may still be protected by copyright in other countries."

I hope that e-mails work now. At least, until the forum wants to send too many. Then I'll have to look for another solution.

Re: [eng/SOLO] Short Stories I by F. Scott Fitzgerald - vik

I don't know what the practice is here in Legamus; in LV, they want the file to be within 74 minutes simply because that's how much time will fit on a CD for those who burn the audiobooks into hard-copy.

If that's not an issue for Legamus, is there any other reason a story can't be 86 minutes long ...

Hello Craig,
do you have found readers now? We can move to Readers Wanted or Readers Found at any moment.
If you have files to upload, the uploader and the MW are ready.

Re: solo [ENGLISH] The Guermantes Way by Marcel Proust - vik

Hello Andrew,

it's a very kind idea to leave Legamus some exclusive time, but as we're not in any competition, neither for public reach nor for any ads, feel free to do as you like. If you put it on LV as soon as possible, that's totally fine with me!

Here are two attempts on a cover. Either I ...

Hello Lynette, hello Adrian,
some time ago I tried to respond by PM and resend the password. Unfortunately I can't see any problem. Does one of you still experience any issue? Don't worry about editing, I have many backups in case anything really goes wrong.

Re: [eng/SOLO] Short Stories I by F. Scott Fitzgerald - vik

I switched this thread to "solo" and moved it to Readers Found.

Lynette, I sent you the password for the MW.

In the MW, both the link and the duration are just free-form text fields. There is no automatism. If one updates the link but not the duration, then that's what you see.

Re: COMPLETE - Solo [ENGLISH] Homage To Catalonia by George Orwell - vik

archive.org is hosted in the US, so it would not be legal to upload it there. That's why all Legamus audiobooks are hosted on listen.legamus.eu which is a server in Europe.

Once the work is Public Domain in the US, it can be copied onto LibriVox and on archive.org.

Re-post, so that this appears below the introduction post. Author (and BC here!) is Craig.

Parts listed below. Many of the parts are just a few lines.

I would like to do this with just one other main reader, to take the female roles.

Re: Under Milk Wood

Feel free to contact them, and to ask them if "Under Milk Wood" is now in the public domain in life+70 countries, or if they are any "special" conditions that would prevent this.

Of course it will still be under copyright in the US - like all other Legamus content.
