(Worms of the world untie!! ... or, unite! Whichever! {g!})<BR/><BR/>The extended list in the comments (which includes some more negative reviews for comparison) also includes links to me reading portions of CoJ aloud, especially the first four chapters.<BR/><BR/>JRPJason Pratthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01602238179676591394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346831263230175202.post-62913354390425142892009-02-16T09:27:00.000-08:002009-02-16T09:27:00.000-08:00Mari,I'm pretty sure my emailer killed paragraphs ...Mari,<BR/><BR/>I'm pretty sure my emailer killed paragraphs and inserted weird carriage returns (even by my standards {g}) and divided some words into pieces and smooshed some words together, the first time I sent the article to Tracee (the publicist who put together the book tour)--which she didn't tell me, but which I discovered after she started posting up interviews and articles.<BR/><BR/>I sent her a doc file to make corrections with, which I know happened for at least one interview. But I have no idea whether she sent <I>you</I> that corrected doc file or not.<BR/><BR/>I never did receive a doc file from you in the email, so far as I know. If it arrived, but didn't say anything in the title header about CoJ, I may have accidentally deleted it as spam. If you sent it to Tracee, she didn't forward it along to me.<BR/><BR/>The review address list I was given by Tracee doesn't have anyone's name "Mari" or [your last name] in it, which probably explains why you never received a review copy. {wry g} If you'll give me a mailing address (send to my name, no space between first and last name, at compuserve.com--LABELED CLEARLY IN THE HEADER so I don't accidentally erase it), I'll be glad to send copy dated and autographed to you specifically (or to whomever you wish, if you prefer), from my local stock. (All the other reviewers in the tour got unautographed copies from warehouse stock, when I sent the address list to my distributor.)<BR/><BR/>Hope that's helpful!<BR/><BR/>JRPJason Pratthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01602238179676591394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346831263230175202.post-41250409589284386082009-02-16T08:41:00.000-08:002009-02-16T08:41:00.000-08:00Interesting post, Cry of Justice sounds great.htt...Interesting post, Cry of Justice sounds great.<BR/><A HREF="http://thebookworm07.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">http://thebookworm07.blogspot.com/</A>The Bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10217390642323530030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346831263230175202.post-70936530084363282432009-02-14T12:49:00.000-08:002009-02-14T12:49:00.000-08:00I emailed you last week with a word version to get...I emailed you last week with a word version to get your input on the formating since it came to me a bit messed up. I never heard back so I went with my best guess. Also, I didn't receive the copy of the book so I wasn't able to check the quotes. I let Tracee know about that a couple weeks ago. I recently emailed her to let her know that I will not have a review for the 19th. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the clarification, though. I will go ahead and fix it for you.Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13763880769278650225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346831263230175202.post-85753801926636350602009-02-14T09:29:00.000-08:002009-02-14T09:29:00.000-08:00Incidentally, I have no idea why there are so many...Incidentally, I have no idea why there are so many extra quotation marks in the excerpt from CoJ. I didn't put them there.<BR/><BR/>For clarification purposes, the book excerpt begins at "Our choices affect...", and ends with "And I myself refused to accept that truth--that threat." There should be open quotation marks at the beginning of each small paragraph along the way (which is standard format for multiple paragraph quotations), but no close quotation marks until the end of "that threat" (ditto).<BR/><BR/>The "If you know..." sentence afterward is from me again, for this article; not an excerpt from the book.<BR/><BR/>JRPJason Pratthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01602238179676591394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346831263230175202.post-79625234234497010012009-02-13T06:55:00.000-08:002009-02-13T06:55:00.000-08:00Thanks for hosting the article, Mari. {s!}JRPThanks for hosting the article, Mari. {s!}<BR/><BR/>JRPJason Pratthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01602238179676591394noreply@blogger.com
