The Growing Up of Cornelia- (Lucy Maud Montgomery Short Stories, 1907-1908) Excerpt

I decided to only record the charming beginning of this tale of 'tomboy transformation'. I prefer Austen's Lady Susan, as far as epistolary tales go and I'm always sad when tomboys end up conforming! Cornelia is, however, a delightful and exuberant nature-loving quasi misanthrope. Please do enjoy as you drift off to sleep.

Smee by A.M. Burrage

This is my nascent effort at narrating a Christmas ghost story (sorry! it is a bit scary for a Short Slumbers offering!) complete with (hopefully) creepy sound effects. Having quickly listened to bits of other recordings of this story, I find that my version is a bit...restrained. I do prefer English stories with English accents,  but mine just aren't consistent enough, so my twangy North American tones will have to do. I hope you enjoy part one of this traditional Yuletide ghost story just the same.  I'll be editing part 2 tomorrow! Free sound effects from https://sfxcellar.accusonus.com/ I also use their (not free) filters to remove any explosive plosives and intrusive sounds. More info about A.M. Burrage here: https://www.deadtreepublishing.com/pages/a-m-burra Although this ghost story was published in 1930 it is in the tradition started by the Victorians of telling ghost stories over the Yuletide period. 👻 Some background on the tradition of Victorian ghost stories here: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2013/dec/23/ghost-stories-victorians-spookily-good http://victorian-era.org/ghost-stories-of-the-victorian-era.html

The Girl Who Drove the Cows

Jolly chums in the summer and virtue rewarded: (and social-climbing put down) a winning L.M.M. combination. This episode recorded using a quieter mic and a little  sound dampening. I hope the plosives and such are more pleasing to the ear.
