I haven't started working on it yet but I am interested in it and have
requested the print book. I do have one 500+page book to finish and 2 shorter
ones; I've already released it, but if no one has taken it when I've finished
my shorter books I'll take it back (it'll be much more fun than the Hitler
biography. I can alternate working on them.

Mayrie. I'll leave them for newbies in the future, unless they've been on the
list for a long time. In fact, I'll release the one I took. (It's 846 pages.
That should give someone plenty of practice (smile). It was submitted Aug.2011.
That's less than a year ago--not too long. (The title is BTC
Celestal Harmonies and it sounds very interesting.
