RE: [DL] Collegium musings



I find Typo's in the books all the time.  Most of them aren't spelling
errors, but grammar errors or the use of the wrong word (Their vs. There),
etc.

I've also noticed that on some of the books, the primary editor was the
author.  It's difficult to catch your own mistakes.

It's not a big deal.  In some places it even fits with the 'Southern Draw'
writing style.

It takes a lot of time and effort to edit a book for errors.  Also, certain
people are just good at finding Typos.  They just 'cry out' to them.

Long as we're on the topic of the Collegium...

Anyone else notice the rather large number of typos in the book? I mean, it
isn't meant as a put-down of any sort, just an observation. But, there are a
lot. That's what surprised me, because I've never noticed that in any of my
other Pinnacle books. Is it me? Anyone else notice this? Anyone...?
