Well, one of the last book I submitted had about six hundred and fifty
pages, with a good contents section, and when I looked at the approved book
it had eight hundred plus pages and, of course, the contents made no sense.
Also, there is already a copy of Empire Falls on the system; maybe it has
some mistakes, but I am re-reading it, ant I would be very surprised if it
couldn't have been fixed easier than it seems to be given all the
conversation it has generated.
