Love this and your tone of delivery😊

That really means a lot to me. I've read all these stories but often times many years ago so I re-read them and sometimes read a second time. I try to do everything in one take but occasionally I don't like the result so I will do a second take. At times I do stumble over my words but it's often because I'm literally struggling to read them since I'm often reading the text through my phone. I'm really pleased with how this channel is going and I love being able to share these fun stories.

It's actually growing faster than I expected. My main channel took a long time to get views. I do think if I can do some shorts it will help.

@@DCSilverAgeStorytime it probably would because that's what people are into at the moment. Hopefully it keeps growing at this rate. Good luck.

it's almost as if the stories back then were targeted at a different audience

[@DCSilverAgeStorytime]

@@serratededge4154 Yes, they clearly were targeted towards children and I get that. Make no mistake, if it sounds like I'm making fun it these stories it's done our of love and respect. I adore the silliness of the Silver Age.
