Roger; That is the reason why I posed the question and also the reason why I "questioned" the Smash Words publishers being on the safe publishers list. I only know of Smash Words being an "on-line" publisher and have not ran across any of their books being sold in bookstores (at least not to date) although many of those who publish on Smash Words also have printed books in bookstores. Like I said I am a member of Smash Words and one day soon will publish my own work on the site but was just curious. It was not meant to bring any harsh discussion only wanting clarification. *smile* Netta "Just because you are blind does not mean you lack vision"-Stevie Wonder
