Title: Riddled with spelling errors
Review: I've read the first couple of chapters of this book's Kindle version and am quite happy with the practical tips provided by the various contributors. However, I'm getting increasingly frustrated with the spelling errors that plague their texts. So far, I've bumped into "accomodation," "childrens' gathering," "why his [i.e. he] was so breathless," and--truly baffling--"ex-patriot" instead of "expatriate.â With the possible exception of "accomodation," these are not just typos. They are glaring errors creating the distinct impression that the book wasn't edited or even proofread before being published. For a how-to-get-published book, this is unforgivable. And it's a real shame, too, as content-wise the book seems quite good.
