Thanks Gustavo for the reply. I thought they usually said when it was a
duplicate. That should make me check the list before I send in a book. I
send in a duplicate every once in a while but the rejection usually says
that it's a duplicate, but I guess this one wasn't in the list yet. When
there are duplicates like that do they ever check to see which copy is the
best?
Regards.
Bud,
Hello. From the automated email you received when I rejected this book earlier today:
>Below are some of the specific reasons for the rejected submission: > >Duplicate submission.
There is another copy of the book in the Admin Approval queue waiting for me to approve it.
Thanks,
gustavo
