Thanks Bilbo,

I used the Style Guide provided by Smashwords. It emphasized that there should be no more than four or five "returns" between any blocks of text, including chapters. From my initial attempt at Kindle, which rendered great gobs of blank space, I took the Smashwords advice to heart!

I will certainly look into Brookmyre and I couldn't agree with you more about both Steinbeck and Hiaasen. My favorites by each are Travels with Charley and Nature Girl. I have performed in college and community productions of Of Mice and Men.
