New version
I took the original version on holiday with me and discovered a lot of OCR errors that my spell-check had not picked up. Alex Bell was also kind enough to make some suggestions. I have now made about fifty textual corrections. Also, there are long quotations which appear in the paper copy in indented smaller font. I’ve now used the epigraph menu of BD to differentiate them from the main text. There are three short italicised passages within the quotations that could not be recreated with BD, so I have put them in upper case. |

Hi Patricia
Just wanted to write you a note to say thanks for posting this! I am reading it tight now and enjoying it a lot. I have found a few errors and was not sure if I had the most recent version, so I will redownload tonight before I finish it. It's a great little story and I am enjoying it. Thanks so much for posting! |
