Hi Jake,

Very interesting! I sure just saw that other split second. You mentioned if I wasn't registered for adult content it might not show. I list a number of books that I upload as adult but maybe that wouldn't do it. How would I change that? I don't read any books, just scan them and upload them to bookshare for the volunteers to fine tune. I could try to sign in and see if it would show the one by Baldacci. I wonder how many books I've missed like that.
Thanks Jake for the input; I guess after two years of volunteering and sending in several books I still have some things to learn.

Hi Bud,
The David Baldacci copy is flagged as adult content, so if you didn't log in, or do not have your settings set to display adult content you could be missing some titles. Direct link:

I know I've made this mistake before, luckily not after scanning something. Some action books, I wouldn't consider adult, sometimes get flagged as such. I'd recommend to all volunteers to allow adult content to be shown. When browsing this content will be identified with a line at the end of the long synopsis, and if you don't want to read something that's how you can avoid it.

HTH,
Jake

Hi
Gerald,

Thanks for the headsup, I have made that mistake before so I always check now before I do a book. I did find that split second but it is by a different author so I assume would have to be a different book. I was afraid that would happen. I'll go back in and look at the synopsis to be sure it's not the same one.
Thanks.

Bud,

Are you aware that Split Second is already in the collection and rated
Excellent?  I've read it, and I don't remember there being any problems with
the book, but it's been a while since I read it.

Gerald

Hi Gang,

I just submitted Split Second by David Baldacci.  It's a little over
400 pages and is quite clean from mistakes.  I caught a lot of words
that were run together without a space and fixed them.  It's a real
thriller about presidential candidates and the secret service trying
to guard them.  A lot of intrigue and a few murders along the way.
Happy validating.
