Hello.Mick
Should I use this end note than the one included to the book? I also have questions and favors to ask. Hope you would reply to this post.
 
Thanks Mick! And thanks I finally got your attention. We are editing the Japanese version for publishing and I would like to ask you several favors for the Japanese version. May I ? and how should I communicate with you?

I'd replied to your email.
 
Sorry to bother you, but I am desperate to get reply from you to finish the book. Most of all,we would like to have photos and tables that we can translate into Japanese. Please help us.
I replied on May 1.
 
Thank you I found it in my gmail account. Sorry to bother you and the information sure gives a big shock to my publisher. We have to discuss the matter seriously
