Hi Cindy, Question for ya. How do I get and enter the copywriter date, holder, isp number and all the good stuff. Also, There is a synopsis in the file. How do I put it in so there's a synopsis? I think that's it for now. LOL! I think, once I have all this down, I'll be able to submit more books. Thanks so much for your help! Smile!
