Anyway, I wasn't planning to upload it here, just commenting on BookCat's question about the copyright situation. (Sorry BookCat - I've got too many half-finished book projects already...) |

I downloaded it from Manybooks, but just wanted to point out that it isn't available in a hand-formatted MR version, which would be so much better: manybooks just copy the whole thing from PG it seems.

Does it count if we run the spellcheck in Sigil? I did that for the book in question and it seemed not to be too bad. Most supposed errors seemed to be in proper names and such.

I am uploading this title now (Come Out of the Kitchen).
Bookcat, thank you for bringing this author to my attention! She is very witty and fun to read, and I plan to do more of her books as soon as I finish my slated Jean Webster batch (the author of "Daddy Long-Legs") |

Two computers? Nice idea. I manage that on one: Right half of the monitor is Sigil, left half the pdf. |

Me again! According to my reckoning, South Riding by Winifred Holtby should be in the public domain as she died in 1935, but I can't find it in the library at all.
I would very much appreciate it if someone uploaded a kindle version please. |

And again it's me! I was looking for something by H G Wells who died in August 1946 and should be in the death+70 public domain by my calculations, but he's nowhere to be found in the library. Could this be rectified please?
I would have a go at this myself, but don't know the first thing about formatting a book apart from running it through Calibre. |
