Dear Lissi,
I'm not good on phones, and there is the time
difference problem (I am, as you guessed, on the West
Coast.)
But I think I can give you the directions simply, if
you're working in Word. This probably will be no help
if you're in KEZ. Follow these steps and see if it
works.
1. Open your book file.
2. Go to the File menu at the top of the screen.
3. Scroll down to Save As and click
4. Put the title of the book followed by a dot and the
letters rtf.
5. Underneath there should be a series of choices that
you can save in. click on RTF
6. Save and close.
When you go to upload, after filling in the blanks you
mentioned, when you come to the File box, at the other
end of the blank box is the word Browse. Click on
that. Find your book file and click on that. The title
will go into the box.
There should be a space before that that asked you to
choose what form the file was in, and you should
blacken rtf
Somewhere on that page there is an Accept and a
Reject. Click on Accept, and you'll be taken to a
second page.
Now the above may not help you at all (smile), because
I'm at a disadvantage not knowing what it is you don't
see. I've been told that the things I see on these
upload pages are not in the same places for people who
use the various technologies.
If these steps don't work for you, hopefully someone
else will answer you soon.

Dear Cindy, Mike Gerald and volunteers,
Would anyone be willing to talk me through this on
the phone? I've read
Mike's message and I don't know how to follow his
instructions. I'm so
stuck.
In hopes all of you won't think I'm completely daft,
I've been following the
discussion on confirming or searching copyrights.
Now that's an issue I
understand. Should I ever come across copyright
issues, I'm confident I will
be able to resolve them. Cindy's idea that Elizabeth
Peters may have
incorporated her various pen names under an umbrella
with a publisher-like
name was interesting.
Always With Love,
Lissi
