The funny thin...I feel the love! thank you Robin! <br /><br />The funny thing about the sample I read was it was one of the two Coker linked to in the Style Guide! Yet, the story was good. I even want to go back and buy the book (when I have the money). I've seen some glaringly obvious errors in copies of books written by very popular authors and I wonder to myself, "How did THAT happen?" <br /><br />We're all human, that's how.Kristie Kiesslinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07480845108333771796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1774213686899888653.post-37482285409013318752011-07-12T10:22:44.136-04:002011-07-12T10:22:44.136-04:00Typorum... I like it. :D
I think it's very im...Typorum... I like it. :D<br /><br />I think it's very important to remember that epublishing *is* still young and growing. I have read several ebooks, and I will confess that I have been somewhat dismayed by the sloppiness of the formatting (the content is another issue entirely). That Mark Coker has taken the time to produce a guide (a free guide!) to help people avoid those messes is admirable. Even more, it is amazing – and heart-warming - to discover how open, helpful and supportive the indie community is. However, as you are worrying about typographical errors, keep in mind that *many* professionally edited books have them. Take advantage of your editors - and that grammar check!<br /><br />As for being quoted... I've seen some fairly long passages from Tolkien that had no reference to page nor chapter. It's all right. You don't need page numbers; we'll love you anyway.Robin Lythgoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06432411701244810312noreply@blogger.com
