I am pretty sure her email address is in the comments of her submissions. It
is not uncommon for people to forget to look there, unfortunately. I know my
problems were over the holidays, but while I was not getting replies at that
time, there were more submissions being made. Later, when she reached me, she
said she had computer problems, but at that time, I had no ideas the book had
more problems than chapter headings. It wasn't until I had a hard copy to add
Chapter headings I saw how many more problems there were.
Sorry I stirred up a hornets nest; I wanted to be proactive, not destructive,
and am limited with my computer time right now. My bad for the way I handled
it; I did not want others to slug through tough issues, especially if they
might not have a book to refer to to get things right.
