Hello, Friends,

 

I am Dianne B. Phelps with guide dog, Hibiscus of Napa, California. I have 
recently signed up to become a Book Share volunteer with a view toward toing 
some proof reading for Book Share. I have to do a couple of things to my 
Microsoft Word program and make sure I am able to run the find and replace 
systems appropriately and can check for proper page breaks and the like. If you 
will be patient with me for just a bit, I will begin to start this volunteer 
work. I am just a bit overwhelmed with the procedures, but Mayrie has given me 
some information to work with which will be very helpful.

 

I am an avid reader and read constantly, but there is no reason, I can’t do 
some of this with the computer and help out, for me, probably one book at a 
time, at least until I really know what I am doing.

 

My preferences are definitely mysteries, biographies, some Christian fiction 
and have had some experience with medical terminology in my work as a medical 
transcriptionist. I also enjoy reading about animals, particularly dogs because 
I am working my eighth wonderful guide who is absolutely amazing.

 

I know many of you from other places, and it is wonderful to reconnect, and I 
look forward to getting to know those whom I don’t know.

 

Sending happy smiles to all,

 

Dianne B. Phelps and Hibiscus
