Maithe,

I find that either the ISBN number or the short synopsis is what gives me 
trouble.  If my synopsis is to long I get an error.  If I leave it blank I get 
an error.  I finally give up and put something short in that column such as 
mystery or something else with one or two words and my book gets accepted.  
Sometimes, even though I know my ISBN number is correct, it is not accepted, so 
I leave that area blank.
Good luck.

Dawn

  Hi Gary!

  That is exactly what is happening to me.  It just said there was an error, 
but it did not specify where it was occurring.

    Hate to break it to the list, but, when I was having problems, No Error was 
indicated.

      Hello,

      When your submission is not accepted, try searching, using your screen 
      reader's find feature, for the word error. Once found, at least in the 
past, 
      the word error would appear immediately above or next to the part of the 
      form containing the error. If this still works, we might be able to 
isolate 
      exactly which part of the form is being difficult.

      Scott
