Hi Donna, It is hard for me to believe that you would submit a book of poor quality! It is too bad a submitter is not notified as to who validated a specific book, so he/she could contact that person.

I submitted A Confederate General from Big Sur by Richard Brautigan, and have just received a notice that it was rejected because of poor quality. If someone from this list validated it, can you please contact me with details? As I noted in the comments field when I submitted it, Brautigan used a lot of proper names and made-up words such as "drunkied" that influence the rank spelling. According to K1000 it gets a 97.99% ranking with no restrictions, and a 99.77% ranking when it ignores capitalized words. As usual, I'm willing to do whatever to make this an acceptable book, but I've gone through it pretty thoroughly and I don't understand how it can be called poor quality. Donna
