Thank you for the information on the freebie, jj2me.

I very much appreciate the information and, in fact, have downloaded the book.

However, I'm wondering if the author could make the mobi version single-spaced between paragraphs. (calibre will not close up the paragraphs, even though the Removing Spaces Between Paragraphs is checked.)

Thanks again for the information on the Freebie!

No! Don't risk it.

Keep your 10-for-10 5-star review rating on Amazon for as long as you can. I've never seen that high a rating before, not even 8-for-8, and I check those reviews for a lot of audiobooks and pbooks. Congratulations.

(Especially don't ask the general public for reviews, rather than the paying public who would more likely be fans of the western genre.)

I'm sorry, Don. The process is limited to me uploading a doc and Smashwords converting into various formats. **Boring details follow** I originally uploaded a doc with indented paragraphs and no spaces between each 'graph. Due to a glitch in my doc, everything came out centered. Yikes! Totally unreadable! I then re-formatted my doc to remove the indentations and put a hard return between 'graphs--but only one space between each block paragraph. Are you getting more than one?

The hard return is maybe why the spaces won't remove? I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, but each comment helps me learn for the next ebook. Thank you.

Whoa! I didn't realize my review rating constituted some kind of record! **Humbly ducking head** Thank you.

Yours is good advice that I will keep in mind for the future.

Thank you for the explanation. I DO look forward to reading your work.

Thanks again.

ADDED: It's an extra space between every paragraph.
