Shouts From Down Under

When the time of marriage comes; your book and the public..

Ever read a book with typos? Weird stuff? Pages out of order. A page missing?

Our daughter is reading Dracula and found these stuff-ups. Show's how easy it is, even for a final manuscript, to have complete and utter kindergarten level punctuation, spelling and grammar.

Seems we should (must!) get someone to read, very carefully, the final draft before it's printed.



Editing may be a chore, but after finding some American Burr-grass in my socks after mowing, and arranging them on the laptop wrist rest in the shape of the Aussie flag stars, I can see now that normal typing, and editing, isn't so bad after all.
These little babies are not the best thing to forget about and have clinging to your skin.
