David L. asked Marc Stevens:

2. The books are in first person and I wondered if your copy editor was hard to convince that Nathan would say things like "Pasta seated Tria and I, and then the rest of the crew"? Not seated Tria and me. He seated me. Nathan sounds like he wouldn't worry about this type of grammatical situation of a double object. Can't wait for five. These are fun, a bit gorey, but fun, esp. the removal of sewage. Want Justice

Marc Stevens David, unfortunately you will find little mistakes throughout my last book. I had promised it by spring and it was in possession of my editor for several months. She resided in Illinois and was in the epicenter of the country's Covid-19 outbreak. She contracted the virus and notified me she was unable to edit my manuscript and returned it to me. Rather than search for another editor and delay the book again for an undetermined amount of time, I went ahead and ran it through spellcheck (worthless) one more time, and released it as is. I am writing my fifth book and as I find out the mistakes in #4, I am correcting them and will do an update to the files when I decide I have caught most of the mistakes. MJ
