Thank you, Valerie.  It definitely works both ways!  I appreciate your 
trust--and your help!

  Absolutely, Marty!  I am blessed with many excellent Bookshare partners and I 
hope they all know how grateful I am.  I wanted to mention Vivian this time 
since she does more wish list books than any of my other partners.  That is 
cool; taking something that is filling anthers wish as well as working on 
longer series like helping me on the Nancy Drew books, heavily along with Em 
Rose.


  And then there is Pam Hoffard, tirelessly scanning away boxes of books I send 
and newer volunteers, Sandi Ryan and Nicole Bond, as well as trusty long time 
volunteers, Jamie Yates and Susan Lumpkin. And Charlene Ota's painstaking work 
with cookbooks!  Problem with naming names is you always leave one off and I 
hate that I will forget another timeless helper.


  Thank you everyone for making this the best job ever!  
   
  Valerie


  September is Pediatric Cancer Awareness month
  Wear a gold ribbon and spread the word!
  My 9 year old son, Drew, died in 1993 of a brain cancer and in the 19 years 
since there are no new treatments. Let's fight for our kids and get more 
research dollars on kid's cancers!

  Hello Valerie and other friends,
     I just want to add my thanks to all of you too.  This is one of the best 
groups of people I’ve ever met.  Besides Vivian, there are many others who do 
scans that are great reads, and the people who do the scans are wonderful to 
work with.  I get as much doing the proofreading as any of the members do when 
they download and read the books.  It is a pleasure to work with all of you!

  Dear fellow Booksharians;

  I just want to take a moment to tell everyone what a pleasure it is to 
volunteer with so many talented volunteers! I just did a book from Vivian 
Flores, Hope in a Jar, and not only was the book a fun and whimsical look back 
at the past 30 years, but the quality of Vivian's scans is so great that it 
makes it a pure joy to proofread, needing to catch only the little tiny things. 
 Vivian is also one of those great people who works filling wishes from the 
wishlist, and I love occasionally taking a break from my projects to do a wish 
or two that she has scanned.

  For all the ladies out there just wanting a light read, I loved the blurbs 
starting each chapter with memorable advertising quotes.
   
  Valerie
