No, they take the average length of time. I normally edit them, unless I state other wise. I have had ones that I knew were up and down validations still take forever. Smile. But since I am not earning credits at this point, smile, at least for another year, well. For me, it is o.k. if mine take a while. But we do need to find a solution, smile. Shelley L.

Well, Shelley, some of yours get validated very quickly because they are already edited by you. Do those go through real quickly? Sue S. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shelley L.

Scott self validates some of his stuff. I know for me, if I have self validated something it does get on the site quickly. I have waited for months for some stuff. Shelley L.

Wonder how this Scott Blanks gets his approved so quickly? According to him, 10 days is the longest he has waited between submission and seeing his book on the site. That is strange and it ruffles my feathers a bit. <smile> Sue S. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shelley L.

Peter, told me that the site gets updated once a day, the "new books" page, so It is kind of not worth checking more than once a day. I had one approved yesterday which should be up there today.

I believe it was mentioned recently that there would be a back log for a time. If I'm not mistaken, this is supposed to be improving from week to week. Again though, I've not noticed any lag, even with the past two approvals. Are you speaking of two or three days between hearing about an approval and actually seeing it on the site?
