Okay, time to come clean. There's a reason I haven't sent out the signed fivers yet. That reason is --
(Are you sure you want to hear this? It's pretty stupid.)
-- That reason is that if people were paying me for this, I wanted to go the extra mile and make sure the fivers looked good on paper. In particular, I wanted to make sure there weren't any scenes that were interrupted by page breaks. And I could not for the life of me figure out how to do that. It would be simple in a word processor, but these are HTML files. It was just recently that I actually tried loading the HTML into Word and discovered how easy it was.
Oh, like you've never underestimated a Microsoft product.
Anyway, I'm posting now to guarantee that I'll send out the signed fivers as soon as I get back in Waterloo. I have everything I need, and now I know that. So if you've been waiting for your envelope to arrive, it's coming shortly, and I'll see if I can throw in a little something extra for the delay.
