Waving around and throwing a book at different speeds. The book is a 350 page paperback called "In The Land of Invented Languages" by Arika Okrent, in case you were wondering. Recorded on my Tonor TC30 USB condenser microphone. Originally for the Solar Postal Services podcast, but now for you :) No credit needed, but I would love to know what you're doing with it.

Added to the alpha build of my video game. Used at the 50-51 second mark in conjuction with other sound effects for one of the 4 sfx that plays when a stack of papers is thrown. The playtest is free as of writing if you care to see. Appreciate you recording this and adding it to the public domain!
