    So I put my book on line for free.

    I think it's good and want to share the info as soon as possible, anyway.

    Take a look when you get a chance. Just scroll past all the computer stuff. I wasn't going to sit there and try to edit everything. But for the most part, its clear.

    I would love any and all feedback.

    And if someone has a publishing hook up, don't be shy ;)

    It's the posts entitled "Halcyon"

    The genre is self help...based on ancient Jewish texts.

    Online is sometimes the best solution in such cases.
    Congratulations for having brought your writing to its end.
    I will try to find some time to read it all, but for the time being I could tell you there are some unreadable paragraphs with some weird looking charatecteers appearing, I think you should be careful about things like that happening...

    The site you linked to is not Firefox friendly. I havent tested it with Internet explorer but basically all i can see is page formatting. I suspect the site was made with Microsoft Word or some other such software.

    an example of what that link shows
    Try Dreamweaver. It is expensive but very much worth every penny ! About 99% of professional sites are built with it. The problem with using Word, or any other non-professional html editor is that they tend to ignore CSS formatting and just do their own thing
    dreamweaver is cool

    Great - try to get your stuff out there for free and this is what happens. Hmm. I guess I will try to edit it so its clear of that junk.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    I'm not in a position right now to spend money on anything, but I appreciate that tip as well.

    Good luck to all with the creative process...
