Hi Lori. I must confess I feel quite guilty reading how all of you are slaving away to get books in the collection, and here I am shirking my responsibilities. I started reading it and discovered that only the second half of the book is messed up and so I've decided to fix it myself. I really want it in by Christmas. thanks for the offer though.

If you want it in the collection by Christmas I cannot do it. I have two books ahead and other projects right now, and Christmas itself. Let me know.

I just got done scanning a four hundred page novel, it's actually two novels in one, A Christmas Guest and A Christmas Secret by Anne Perry. But, unfortunately there's rather a big catch. I just now discovered that all of the letter y's are actually ts. Is anyone willing to take this Herculean task on? I'd do it only I have three pages of dialogue to Modernize for school, and am leaving for Portland in a week. I even optimized this baby and it still messed up. Julia
