Mary,

THIS IS SPAM. 

Legitimate authors do NOT need to spam mailing lists to generate sales.
They help on the list. Unlike real authors, such as Andrew Pitonyak and
Jean Hollis Weber, who help on this list, you have not bothered. In fact
this is the sole message in the list(s) archives. One message, really.

Your subject is misleading in that it implies that yours is the only
manual. Not so, the Documentation project and OOoAuthors group, already
have manuals available and for FREE in softcopy and at a reasonable cost
for printed.

In conclusion, I see that you and maybe some others think that by abusing
the OOo mailings lists for a personal profit is okay, I do not. 

I think that if you read your terms of service agreement with your ISP you 
will find that you have made a mistake. I will bet that your publisher
will also not be happy.

Enjoy your profits.
