eeeeer?
I used the lit2eob converter and got a different output, paragraph structure is liek this:
<p class="MsoPlainText">There were, of course, survivors.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The world was not destroyed—just a way of life. The global population was cut </p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">down to perhaps one-fifth of what it had been. The ecosystems were utterly </p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">disrupted. The climate was transformed.</p>
which kind of shows AGAIN each line wrapped in p tags, but this time no <br>
how in the sweet bejeezus am I going to fix this little horror story, convert to txt then epub?
