Orlando: I have com...Thanks for the comments guys.<br /><br />Orlando: I have come across some books with a lot of errors, and others with hardly any. Funnily enough I notice that books by old hands (Stephen King for instance) have more errors in their recent works compared to their older stuff - possibly editors don't pay as much attention because of how established the author is? I'm not sure but I think as long as the mistakes don't pull you out of the story too much it doesn't matter.<br /><br />Siebendach, I might be interested in reviewing books you want to throw my way. I'll have a think about it as I need to make sure my own writing takes precedence. But I love the excuse to read stories I might otherwise miss! Keep your eyes open for a "Review submission guideline" page, assuming I decide to go ahead. I read fantasy, sci-fi, and horror in the main, though I've also enjoyed historical fiction, and thrillers. And YA, though I often feel like I'm reading as an outsider looking in! :)A.M.J.

But then again, I often find one or two. I do have proofreading experience, but it's not like I'm looking very hard. <br /><br />Alexa, do you have a book review policy per se? Let us know! If you consider taking books for review, I have one coming out this summer. I'd submit it for review if it fits your genre preference. <br /><br />I apologize in advance if you've already answered this question. Please feel free to take this comment down if you don't want my post to encourage other people asking this. I understand why you might not want to it; while it brings more people to a site, as it also takes time and effort.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5460049377024299674.post-11526251542276257762011-04-16T18:08:05.610+01:002011-04-16T18:08:05.610+01:00This is a fascinating review of Hocking's work...This is a fascinating review of Hocking's work. I have not had the opportunity to read any of her books. Now I'm considering checking them out. It's funny. I'm reading a book traditionally published and came across several errors. I didn't know what to think at first, but as I continued to see more I knew it couldn't just be me. I didn't know it was possible to print errors when using a traditional publisher, but apparently it is. My first time coming across this, or is it possible I overlooked it thinking it was just me? <br /><br />Again, I'd like to say, great review.Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10103458688711351378noreply@blogger.com
