Dear Shannon,I'm having a great time validating your excellent scan of An Excess of Love. It's an Irish chunkster! Bookshare has another novel set during the same revolutionary period called, 1916.
In regard to your receipt of a flaming letter, you took the high road by providing information and not reflecting the author's enmity back to her. I applaud you for being a classy lassie.
Always with love, Lissi----- Original Message ----- From: "Gary Petraccaro" <garyp130@xxxxxxxxxxx>

I told her that bookshare was not illegal, and directed her to the site, where she could learn more about it. I also explained to her about NLS, and other services that make books accessible without breaking the law.There was more I could have said, but I decided against it.

Anything I could say would just get me in trouble. I'm glad it wasn't me who got the letter; I would have probably replied, and then been tempted to post her message publicly everywhere.Oh, wait, I wasn't going to say anything. Nice job, Shannon, for doing the right thing, and not the tempting thing.Hugs, Shannon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------From: bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Amber WallensteinSent: Tuesday, August 26, 2008 5:34 PM To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: email from an author of a book I scanned Whew!
