I found about a dozen typos in the first galley.<br /><br />When I got the second one yesterday (7/22), I found two more at the very end that I missed the first time, and unfortunately, after removing that one sentence to make the passage flow smoother, it didn't. I'd found a continuity error that I hope will be overlooked G. B.

Quite often we skip over obvious things, our mind automatically making the correction before we even register it. Do you enjoy the editing process? Or do you find it tedious?

If I ever get published (probably when I'm 90!), I'll be glad to have your tips.
