I record the books I've submitted to Project Gutenberg here, mostly on the off-chance that someone might let me know if they found the transcriptions helpful, or maybe they have errata/would like to ruthlessly criticize the gall of being the only entity submitting newly public domain books, and "intellectual non-fiction", to PG, without the help of DP—or whatever.

I am well aware of the odds, but can be proved wrong.

Features essays on #humanism by many folks, including #tseliot.

Another 'production' of mine. Did you read it? Inquiring minds want to know, even if you come across this years later.

Produced this one. #RobertFrost short biography.

The 1930 volume of collected poetry of Frost is also on its way to Gutenberg soon, with my participation on #DistributedProofreaders

This is me. It's a 1300-page book I worked on myself. Having submitted a few dozen ebooks to PG on my own, I asked myself, what's the most over-the-top book I could work on in a non-fiction genre I find interesting.

The first two volumes won the Pulitzer prize around 1930.

If anyone ever finds this PG transcription useful, I'd love to know. Having contributed thousands of hours to PGDP and related stuff, I remain in the dark on whether most non-fiction is valued by anyone.
