Help needed!

I have recently started unearthing quite a few interviews with Disney artists that not only had never been released before but which have never even been transcribed. Those include interviews conducted by David Tietyen for his book on Disney music, interviews by John G. West for his work on Disney's live-action productions and quite a few others.

A few Walt's People enthusiasts have been transcribing interviews for me in the past, including James D. Marks who is currently absorbing the majority of this thankless task.

Considering the flow of tapes and digital files that I have been receiving recently though, I need more help.

Are any of you (English needs to be your mother tongue) willing to help? Transcription is a painstaking task and some of those interviews are close to 3 hour long, so I am not promising a land of milk and honey. Your two rewards would be: early access to never-accessed-before interviews and one free copy of Walt's People when the volume in which the interview you have transcribed gets published.

Any volunteers?
