Hey, to let you know: When I try to download 23, "Basil and Cleopatra," from the MW, nothing downloads and the link yeilds a 404 error.
Hi Lynette, I've uploaded Ch 23 "Basil and Cleopatra" again. I can hear it. I must have messed it up last time.

Story 17, "Basil: The Freshest Boy," is PL OK
Looks like a whole streak of stories with the same character!
- and I've traded out the old URL for the new on 23 - works like a charm now, and it's added into my queue

Hey, Adrian - Scott sends his compliments. He overheard me listening to the last two stories, and says, "That's a very pleasant reading voice to listen to."
On story 21, at 43:34, I noticed a repeat of "now" at end of that sentence.

Story 23, "Basil & Cleopatra," and Story 24, "The Last of the Belles," are both PL OK
And I did not notice anything annoying in 23. Being quite familiar with your voice, I could tell on 22 and that one that your voice was off its norm, but nothing was the least bit off-putting in either one.

On Story 25, "Rough Crossing," there is one long pause at 23:06 that needs to be trimmed. Everything otherwise is perfectly happy.
Story 26, "Majesty," is PL OK
And now I've caught up to you.

Hi Lynette,
I have uploaded a new story At Your Age
https://upload.legamus.eu/simple/files/ ... gerald.mp3
I hope I've fixed the 2 bugs as well

Hi, Adrian
Story 21, "The Perfect Life," is PL OK now
Story 25, "The Rough Crossing," still has that super long pause
In Story 17, "At Your Age," there is a spot where "Annie" slipped into "Andy", in this sentence starting at 17:30 (and while you have the file open for editing, it might be nice to amplify the volume a couple decibels so it's not noticeably softer than your other sections) -
'"Wasn't she terrible?" said Annie, breathing aloud.

Hi Lynette,
I've uploaded Two Wrongs
https://upload.legamus.eu/simple/files/ ... gerald.mp3
Let's hope there's less than that
41 stories to read I think!

Story 28, "The Swimmers," is PL OK
And both "Rough Crossing" and "At Your Age" are both happy now, too.
(Two Wrongs is on tap)
