Columbo
Never again
I did.
It was a great first up effort.
You built it well. It was almost devoid of any emotion or intonation but then it seems you found your feet and the speech took an even more personal tone when you settled and your delivery conveyed the emotion of your words.
You hurried a bit just before 5 minute mark but adroitly and quickly corrected and composed a measured finish.
You will only get better from what I already personally believe is a strong starting point.
It gets good when you learn to train your voice in public speaking like a conductor leading his orchestra.
With all the dramatics, subtleties, nuances and profound pauses. I reckon you are well on the path.
Bravo Reepbot!
ok. thank you. i was reading it off the page, plus i did notice myself rushing a bit.
