Greetings fellow Kai lords (and yes, in this case it's Kai lords and not Kai
Lords)
My name is Lawrence Ritchie (aka Stealth Fire).
I was a frequent poster and contributor to ye olde Kaiwisdom mailing list,
and I'm back with a vengeance ... totally rejuvenated and ecstatic about
putting in my two gold crowns for future online publications.
Just how can I contribute? Well, among other things, I have professional
editing experience and a certificate in web design. In saying that however,
I'd be happy to contribute in more ways than one with future online
publicatons of the LW books.
Just looking at the proposed (?) changes made to Dawn of the Dragons, I will
say this: some of the corrections are more a matter of stylistic preference
than error corrections per se. I'm just wondering what house style, if any,
everyone agrees on. Without bantering on about it there is no doubt in my
mind that Red Fox (and the others) would have adhered to its own particular
house style, so the likes of removing hyphens and adding full-stops between
'ie' and the like -- besides being considered blashphemic by some -- would
ipsofacto, for matters of consistency, mean the same corrections be applied
to the rest of the books (a potentially mammoth task?).
So where to from here? I want to get working!
Cheers
Lawrence
