Scott, the answer is yes, or at least it was when I
joined as a volunteer. And therefore I don't know why
so many books have been submitted in doc, txt, and
ark.
Grace, I hope the title was spelled correctly when you
approved and uploaded it. (smile). What you wrote
here in the post is C r u m w e l l. If your book was
about Oliver, and time between the Charleses (The
Reformation? The Interregnum? ) the u shoud be an o.
Unfortunately, the name sounds similar despite the
difference in spelling, depending on who's pronouncing
it (smile).
