Mark's Librivox Activity
http://techsmiths-librivox.blogspot.com/2009/09/my-reading-plans-update-september-1-now.html
Updated September 10, 2013). Treasure Island" by Robert Louis Stevenson, on LibriVox. Yes, it's the fourth version on LV (and I'm already in the version that was done as a dramatic reading), but I wanted to "talk pirate" again. Great fun! And, of course, as I had never read the whole book before, it exposed me to Stevenson's best-known work. This book will book-end an earlier one I produced for the same publisher: "High Adventure" by James Norman Hall, an American flyer from the same war. Well, this star...

Mark's Librivox Activity: What's With That Stevenson??
http://techsmiths-librivox.blogspot.com/2012/06/whats-with-that-stevenson.html
What's With That Stevenson? Is the literary world holding a Robert Louis Stevenson revival. and nobody told me? I produced "Kidnapped" four years ago. It is a likeable book, and I enjoyed making the audiobook from it. I was thrilled, too, to get a comment later from a Scotsman that I didn't mangle the accents terribly. And I haven't a clue why. So I ask you - what's with that Stevenson? Update, Aug 1 -. The rate is now almost 15,000 per month! The revival is accelerating! Where to Go From Here.

Reading here, not mine.

Updated Aug 28, 2014. More recently. I've been participating more in the poetry side of LibriVox, in collaborative works. And. have you listened to our crazy 9th Anniversary Song? Ruth Golding rewrote the words to "Funiculi, Funicula" by Luigi Denza to explain our mission in a salute called, "LibriVox is Nine! Then she accepted recordings from all and sundry, piecing them together to get the semi-coherent, certainly funny version you can hear here:. We even had some canines weigh in at important points!

Mark's Librivox Activity: Chalk Up Another!
http://techsmiths-librivox.blogspot.com/2014/05/chalk-up-another.html
Sometime in April, my audiobook "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" (Mark Twain) became the third of mine to break the million-download mark! Considering that mine was the second LibriVox recording of this classic, and the first one (by my colleague Annie Coleman Rothenburg) passed a million some time ago - can we infer that Mark Twain's stuff is popular?
