SCORE!!!

*wonders how you find deals like this on ebay*
-
-bumps because B and my Hard Copy will be in the mail within the next couple of days- Only 6.99 Ebay. -granted, we could have bought it cheaper if we had gone through the auction route, but we didn't like the idea of losing, so we just used the buy it now option-
-
Eesh...coulda just asked and I would have made a disk of all the books and sent it via snail mail.

I have a disk of all of the books. Neither B nor I can read that sort of stuff on the Computer. It's too hard on our eyes. So we just bought a hard copy.
-
I'm the same way. I need to read the books in hard copy too. Of course, I only own three of them.
-
Yay! It came in the mail today, and I love Kamchak.. what a wily Tuchuk! Erm. Only like page 90 or so. -coughs and goes back to reading-

If you have a scanner or access to one, placing your Gor books on disk does have its perks.
Though it is hard to read off the computer screen, when doing research it is hard to beat for pulling up the book and running a search through your editor. When you find what you are looking for, it makes it easier to then return to your book and highlight the quote you feel is important.
For those who go the highlighter route, I recommend using four different colored highlighters.
Use a different color for Men's quotes... Women's quotes... slave's quotes, and one color for general quotes.
In the margins it is also handy to cross reference with the other books by sticking to the highlighted system. Highlight the ref the same and just jot down the book and page beside your books original quote.
-
Yeah. I doubt very seriously I will be checking out quotes or anything. Considering most of the important tidbits about Tuchuk life is already on the webpages, and cross referenced, and checked again to make sure the quotes are right -lol- I'm at the Chapter called The Yellow Pool of Turia (sounds gross!) Decided I'm more than halfway finished with the book now, I'm calling it quits for tonight -lol-
-
So I am finished with my first reading through of Nomads now. -coughs- Despite my... incredulity that I may actually enjoy it.. I couldn't put the damned thing down -sighs- I may not like John Norman's drug induced late 60's writing style (I have to admit, at some points, it was like I was reading greek) but I thoroughly enjoyed all of the characters within the pages of Nomads. So.. yeah.. -shuffles-
-
Oh you lucky brat!
I still haven't finished it.....
I guess I should huh? That way I can get going on the others....
-sighs-
-
*pouts cuz I dont have any of them. hard copy, disk, files... nada*
-
Hrmmm...
If there are those that would like a copy of them in zip file, let me know and I can upload them and send you the link to download.
Raz
-
oh awesome! i will have to hit you up for that!
-
damn..... I finally finished nomads... seems that when I was reading before I had gotten so close to the end but becuase i ended up reading it in a different format I reread almost half the damn book!
but ah ha! I have finished it!
I kinda feel special...
-
-snickers- At least you finished it, that's the important part! -throws my note away-
-
I'll take a copy Raz if it isnt too much trouble.

Raz if you could email me book 19 Kajira of Gor hat would be great, that is the only one I don't have.
-
Raz, could I bother you for a copy as well? Thank you... ~soft smile~
I am still upset with my parents... they had the entire series once, and they were first editions... Mom ended up giving them away to a charity or somewhere... I first picked up the books to read when I was 12, mom thought no harm in it, thinking I wouldn't get the references of the sexual nature, besides, I had read LotR books as well, so she thought it would give me something more to add to my mind and intellect or something, but I read the entire series and loved it... I want those books back, but it takes time and money that I don't have at this time...
