Thank you, Don, I’m really glad you enjoy my reading! I spent a lot of my childhood without a TV, but with books, books, books, in Calaveras County!

Hi Karen. I am a ‘new comer’ to LibriVox, but I love it already. I am a Disabled American Veteran and spend most of my time home alone. I grew up in a home where we read, rather than watch TV. (We never had a TV, and my parents still do not, nor do I !) I just listened to your reading of “The Celebrated Frog….” and enjoyed it immensely. You have a perfect reading voice, and I will be listening to all of your recordings. Thanks for giving of your time to make others’ lives more rich. God Bless You. Don Ginter, Northville, New York. (In the beautiful Adirondack Mountains!!)

Gosh, thanks for your sweet comments, Karen, and I’m glad you’re enjoying LibriVox! I hope, sometime in the next year, to record an entire Jane novel (maybe Emma) alternating chapters with a LibriVox friend. :)

Kara — I happened onto Librivox while browsing iTunes …. how wonderful. I have downloaded several books onto my iPod and they are my accompaniment while gardening, walking the dog, etc. I have been wanting to tell you how much I LOVE your reading of Jane Austen. Your voice has just that little edge of indulgent, slightly arch good humor that is so right for Jane Austen. Now, having visited your Web site, I see that in addition to reading well, you also write a great sentence, knit cool things, and make a heckuva potato salad. Thank you for sharing your lovely self with all of us out here! –Karen
