Hi Shelley,

        This is just my opinion, and what I would do, but I'd keep related
text together, however I had to do that.  I have taken to using three
asterisks to denote section breaks which in the print are denoted by white
space.  So, if you have to move text so it's connected to its related text,
I think that would be more than all right.  Perhaps Carrie has opinions, or
some sort of policy on this?

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Book with very complicated format wondering
thoughts

Hi everyone,

I am editing a book entitled An Illustrated International Encyclopedia of 
horse Breeds and Breeding, and come to a kind of quandry.  In the book I 
believe there are lines sperating the entries into boxes, naturally these 
did not scan.  This wasn't a problem, except now I have two horse breeds who

have melded.  Luckily i can figure out which belongs to what, how should I 
connect the right information, can I move it to increase readibility?  This 
book is going to be a long time in coming, as I have to figure it out bit by

bit and I only do a couple of pages at a time.  But will be a valuable 
resource when done.  But just wondering how to keep everything straight.

The people who burned witches at the stake never for one moment thought of 
their act as violence;
 rather they thought of it as an act of divinely mandated righteousness.
 The same can be said of most of the violence we humans have ever 
committed. -Gil Bailie, author and lecturer (b. 1944)
