Utibe Mbom (utibesamuelmbom) | 4 comments Please edit this quote.

The missing line is “…because business owners take more profits, and give less value.”

Thank you!

I'm not sure if I've understood exactly what you want. If you wanted this added to your quote, rather than replacing your quote, please post exactly what you want the quote to say.

The quote beginning with, "Nobody told me...-" should have an italicized "That" at the beginning of the last sentence.

Hi Nick

It looks like there is another mistake in the quote.

That f****r took my identity. has been what's hardest to accept.

K.V. Wilson | 18 comments Hi, I copy/pasted two quotes but didn't know the less-than and greater-than symbols (which some authors use to indicate telepathy) would erase the text in between. Would someone be able to fix these two quotes please? I've replaced the symbols with quotation marks. Thanks so much!

Should be:

Should be:
You’re perfect," he assured her.
"You're not just saying that because you found out I'm a princess, are you?

Christmas Carol ꧁꧂  | 2512 comments #364 hasn't been removed so I have contacted Support.

Just for everyone's information - we are volunteers not staff. It is greatly appreciated if members contact staff when requested - they must get sick of hearing from me!
