Heh. I can feel your frustration all the way over here.
Yep. *glares at book*
Kind of shakes your faith in the publishing world doesn't it?
Oh, I haven't had any faith in the publishing world since I was about twelve, when I realized that I could've done a better job of proofreading the ST books I was reading at the time than the editors did.
And yet I still want to work in publishing...
And blurs the line between fan fiction and real fiction. ::sigh::
Oh, God... There's a shocking amount of fanfic that's actually better than a good percentage of published fiction. So, so sad.
Weren't you the one who used to print out fic and correct it in red? Or am I mistaken?
I never went that far. I usually hit the back button if the grammatical errors got to be too much. ;)
Amazing to think we had that much free time once upon a time.
Isn't it, though? And then it all went to hell when we started high school--it did for me, anyway...
