Topic: Publishing in Hebrew
I have been inactive at TNBW before my last book was published five months ago. I am now writing a book in Hebrew.
Has anyone used TNBW workshop for writing and editing in Hebrew?

Re: Publishing in Hebrew
I don't know much about publishing here in Hebrew, but my novels that are set in Japan use vertical, right to left structure. When I published the chapters with Japanese characters in it, they turned up as vertical strings of "?" characters. I ended up taking a screen shot of what I wanted, adjusted the "picture" (re-sized as necessary), and hosted it on my web site. Then, inside the chapter I just made IMG & /IMG reference to the photo on my site. Worked perfectly and displays in-line with the English text. It's an extra bit of bother, but it does work.
For a chapter in Hebrew, perhaps a screenshot of the whole page could be referenced and presented as an image.

That is a very interesting web site you have, Avraham. I wasn't prepared (at 0030) for audio to come rumbling through my sound system from your video. 
I see you use the VLC video driver instead of flash, which my FlashBlock stops cold. I'll have to remember that next time.

Re: Publishing in Hebrew
Our plan is to allow posting in different languages, including Hebrew and Japanese. Let me find out what is involved and see if we can accelerate that feature. It might be worthwhile to create a new Group for these languages if you plan to post so that others who write in that language can congregate.

Hi, Sol.
In my case, what Japanese I post is only incidental to the story and inserting a photo depiction is no problem. I am nowhere good enough to post an entire story in Japanese.
