Smashwords

I've spent pretty much all night trying to format a manuscript for uploading to Smashwords. I would say "in the end" - but it wasn't the end at all - I downloaded the template manuscript and I spent a long time following it, to what I thought was the letter. However, I still have autovetter errors.

The trouble is, it tells you that you have them, but it doesn't tell you what they are. Or at least as far as I can figure out. So I now need to go through the whole manuscript and guess what Smashword's Autovetter thinks is wrong.

I see from trawling the internet on this subject that I am not alone.

Still, going through the Youtube tutorials, reading the style guide and ploughing through the template have made me a better person.

But, it will make me give up on trying to publish on Smashwords unless someone can convince me it's worth the crazy effort of trying to second guess what their autovetter thinks is wrong.
