Robert;
I was replying to Tracy who said she had poached books in the past. Again,
Carrie said she would retain holds on agreement of the scanner and proofreader.
In my case, sometimes getting my books shipped back to me can take a while for
me to have the text to proof from.
I guess I will just quit lending my eyes and only do "my" books that I have
bought or requested if people are going to be so nasty about respecting holds
or understanding why some of us want to volunteer instead of free reading. I
will quit buying books on my series I am supplying if there is going to be so
much dissension on whether I can proof books I spent our limited funds on to
add to the collection.
Y'all sure do know how to ruin a good thing!
Valerie
