Gerald and Jake, I think Julie meant that it didn't occur to her to add a comment that this book is one of a series based on the tv characters but is not a screenplay. Frankly, it didn't occure to me to mention that to her, too, when I sent her some pages that had been garbled iin the scan. If would be so much better if whoever questions something about a book, like the copyright or a question like is it a screenplay, asks the submitter or the validator. I don't think most validators check the page one list after they've approved a book, so neither validator nor submitter knows that there are questions. Books sit so long in the admin q that if the submitter doesn't get an accepted note he/she probably forgets, or thinks it's just in the queue.
