RE: NB Writers Safeworld



Bob,

The creators of this software introduced that bug just (would you believe it?!) yesterday in a new version. I have already reported the error as have others. I'll let the list know as soon as this is corrected. Sorry. Please be patient, as I think you are going to like NB Writers Safeworld.

Those of you that have not yet downloaded the software, please wait for my post before you download it.

Here's what you need to logon:

     World Name: NB Writers
     Username: Guest
     Password: pass

Once you log on, click on the accounts group, and give:

1.  Your complete real name.
2.  Your email address.
3.   A short user name you would like to use.

I'll respond by setting up your account, and sending you (by e-mail) a
password.  Log back in and change your password if you want.

If after a few weeks we decide the chat forum is not useful, I will simply
take it offline.

Louis
