Kim and all:

Due to some unexpected personal troubles, I have unfortunately had to
release the Hilda Louis novel Jamie so thoughtfully allowed me to
proof.  It's listed as hold for Courtney, if anyone is willing to
proof.

I am not ordinarily someone who releases things, especially such good
scans, but my personal situation has become extremely difficult
extremely swiftly.

There's also a book which is an edited collection of Rosa Luxemburg's
writings that Deborah Murrey submitted for me which I have been forced
to release.

These are both phenomenal scans, and I would be so very greatful if
someone would give them good thorough proofs so they can be added to
the collection.

I can't appologize enough for having to release these and making them
someone else's responsibility, especially when I specifically
requested to proof them.  I kept thinking I could return to them, but
that does not seem likely in the forseeable future.
Warmest regards,
Courtney
