Nope.

Nor Jim's in 'Actually I'm not too bad a proofreading less than 500 words'

I just found out recently that, although you can't with a publisher, you CAN fix typos in your CreateSpace file for a book.

I have very few, but found one which mystifies and annoys me - it HAS to go. Now, if I can only find the time! I hate to mess with something that is working, but need to get over that: if someone finds an egregious typo, and I, the author, can fix it, why should everyone after have to suffer, too?

Just not enough time daily with the brain on.

Oh boy do I know how you feel. I also know I need to fix something in a book but I am terrified of then not being able to reload it!

Jim | 21813 comments Hopefully I've even got it added to Goodreads Woman in Love


message 4380: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I thought I had read a Benor story but I can't see which one. Maybe I am thinking of another story with a character of similar name. I have also realised what a disappointing number of your books I have read, the good news about this is lots left to go!

Funnily enough I think I remember you mentioning you'd read one, but again I cannot remember which
But hopefully you'll find you like the others

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I've read the first Tsarina book and possibly the second but I can't find it on Amazon anymore

No, Safkhet shut down so they've unpublished all the books.
I've got everything I need for Justice 4.1, War 2.2
Commerce 3.3 is written but needs editing
Medicine 1.4 is half written but got put to one side when Safkhet starting it's slow spiral

Blimey, glad you got them back.

Life is getting in the way. When Safkhet started declining, I shifted to producing the Benor novellas.
I had an idea for a steampunk story and did something with that, but then someone came up with a new SF project so I'm working on that.
My plan is that I get three new covers, re-edit to turn them into English English (and the third one needs editing) and then publish all three at once.
Won't be this year

All I don't own are the front covers

Not sure how Benor would feel about being shared by two ladies in the same night

I'm sure he is up to the job.

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments We'll be gentle with him.


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments Well Kath will, anyway. Maybe if I wait until later on?


message 4397: by Jim (new)

Thats why she should get him first.

M.T. McGuire (mtmcguire) | 8051 comments I was going to say something about sloppy seconds but ... I just can't.
