How do I stitch large audio files together for Audible

Audacity has been crashing every time I paste recorded clips together - is there a limit to the size I can paste - should I do it incrementally or create add'l tracks and then merge them?

This is for Audible - thanks!

Re: How to set RMS on recorded chapters

Hello again Koz, just as a followup - I turned off my refrigerator indoors (I have another outdoors at the opposite end of the un-insulated house that I left on) turning off the indoor fridge did NOT make a difference! In fact the ACX check on the original clip was -55, louder than when I've recorde...
