Eggnog is a cool drink, but only if you're into swallowing pancake batter. LOL

Brilliant work, Dirk! Laughing throughout it.

Happy holidays to everyone on the site.

Bill

Happy to hear you and your family are relatively unscathed, Randall. Our fiber-optic is buried, so it would take something catastrophic to kill our Internet.

One thing that may need looking in on is the "which house do you want to publish in?" question when posting the first chapter of anything. Currently, the method uses check boxes. However, since you can only post in ONE house, a check on two or more results in an error. Could these boxes be changed to a radio button, which will only allow ONE choice? Most noticeable on Booksie, but is done here as well.

Bill

And the same to you, George.

The old way was very good. I was only a guest for about three days when I sprung for the fee. Since then, a lot of water has passed under the bridge and now I'm starting another novel for review.

Bill

Great to have you back, Randy.

For most of my posts, I put them out there in the general public domain. The responses are usually mixed, but I'd say I get around 15-20% fluff and the rest legitimate reviews. Over the years I've been a member of Booksie, I've built up a good readership that helped me a great deal. I review them as often as they review me.

Lately (the last couple of years) I've not posted anything at all. This was due to several reasons, not the least of which was poor health. Now that I've popped back up on the grid after my quad-bypass, I'll try and get more posts out there.

Points mean mostly nothing to me. I have currently just about 1000 points. If I need them, I can use them, but posting on Booksie dosen't require them, so no big deal.

Bill

It's mot the spammers I'm worried about. It's the plagiarizers. Every once in a while I put the first paragraph of any one of my postings into a search engine and see what pops out. Found a lot of them that way.

MJ: Booksie will not let you highlight nor copy any of the postings. It's in place after several works were found out in public sites--mine included.

As for making the type larger, hold down the Ctrl key and roll your mouse. Most browsers will respond by making the page itself larger. CTRL and the "+" and "-" keys will work as well. Ctrl and the number "0" will bring the page back to normal size.
