Hi, Tracy, boy, do I agree with you! Last time I proofread a book which was
so well scanned but when I wrote the submitter saying that the sentence I
was reading needed a "The" inserted, I was sent a message saying "Sorry, no
can do. The word was not in the text and we have to leave the text as is."
I'm sure the author probably wouldn't wish to see typos or missing words in
his/her books. So, you guessed it, I had to leave the word out. Regards, Kim
Friedman.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Submitted: Venus in Copper
I have just submitted Venus in Copper (A Marcus Didius Falco Novel). I read
through it and fixed all the errors I found, and fixed all the headings. The
errors that are left should only be ones that are in the actual book.
Publishers should hire a few Bookshare proofreaders!
This book follows Shadows in Bronze. Falco is a PI in ancient Rome. I like
to think of him as Sam Spade in a toga. This time, our boy Marcus is hired
by a family who think a gold-digger is after one of their members,and all
her previous husbands have had fatal accidents.
This should be an easy job for anyone who wants to take it on. British
spelling and punctuation.
