Yes, this is the one that I had posted on my website, and I yanked all the
files as soon as it was sold.  Mind you, the version that was on the website
was my first rough draft and the finished novel is considerably cleaner than
that.

And thank you for the compliments, you are making me blush.

Yours,
Mary
