The Never-Ending Job of Proofreading!

Well, I did get my *final* proof of my new anthology, The Book People and Other Tales, yesterday. Thought I'd quickly glance through it, you know, just to make sure the formatting was correct. With no warning whatsoever, a glaring typo jumped right off the page and bit me!

So, I go through the book, yet AGAIN and find more than twenty errors hiding in those peaceful looking pages, just waiting to jump out and bite my readers. Have no fear, my courageous readers, I am on the hunt, ferreting out those hideous grammar goblins and those devious punctuation pirates who keep moving my commas around willy-nilly.

It may take a bit longer for this book to be available, but your safety is so important to me, that I will not give up until I have all of the little buggers exterminated.

Be patient just a bit longer.

  1. So. What is The Book People about? I'm not sure I've heard of this one yet.

  2. Hi, Kailan. Books in the near future is all I can say without spoiling the story. (If I ever get it finished!)

  3. I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my
    own blog and was curious what all is required to get set up?
    I'm assuming having a blog like yours would
    cost a pretty penny? I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not
    100% positive. Any recommendations or advice would
    be greatly appreciated. Thank you

  4. Thanks for asking. I'm thrilled you think my site cost a bunch; it's actually free on Blogger! Good luck with your new blog.
