Mayrie, That was a helpful thought, but unfortunately it is not the case with 
this book.

I decided to see if I could get some information from google.books. I pulled up 
two sentences that I thought should be in quotations.  They were in quotations 
on google books, but not in the book I'm proofreading.

Unfortunately, I have decided to reject the book.  In order to create an 
accurate copy someone would have to make many comparisons between the print 
book and the bookshare copy.
Sad because it is a very interesting book.

Thanks again for your suggestion.

Lori

  Hi Lori,

  You might look at the font of the book you're working with.  I have proofread 
a couple of books where the conversation isn't in quotes, but that text is 
either bolded or italicized.  Is that maybe the case with your book?  Just a 
suggestion.

  Sorry, I don't know how to contact either of the folks that you want to 
contact.

  Good luck and happy proofreading!

  Mayrie

  Hi, Everyone,

  Does anyone know how to contact Sister M. Delores Dean?
  I am proofreading one of her submissions and am puzzled.  The book does not 
use quotations around statements that seem to be quotations.

  This is the second book in a week where I have needed to reach the submitter 
and have had no way of doing so.  I contacted Carrie and Scott about the first 
instance, as well as this list, but because of their work load I have heard 
nothing.

  So if anyone knows how to reach either Casey Matthews or Sister M. Delores 
Dean I would appreciate knowing.

  Lori C.
