Donald Dale Milne	Len - You have the Page Count = 48 but the total sum of story page counts = 49. Looks like 1 extra page. Sequences 2 and 7 - Genre - it's mashed up as "math&science"; just needs spaces. Thanks - Don	2013-02-07 03:17:30	Under Review	Editing
Len Wolinsky	Sorry... should have been, of course, '52'. Don't know how I got 'math&science'... I must have entered it that way once before, and now it comes up that way automatically what I start typing. Now fixed.	2013-02-07 05:32:01	Editing	Under Review
Donald Dale Milne	I've found that autocomplete and cut-and-paste account for the most errors. - Don	2013-02-07 12:33:44	Under Review	Approved
