T (twoo) Anyone else spot the typos in the ad for a book by Ruth Reid - "The Promise of an Angel"?

I can't believe no one proofread it before pushing it out....

Here on GR? I don't get that ad... what did they mess up?


message 3: by T (new)

T (twoo) Yep, on GR - in the revolving ad space on the right side of the page....There are extra words in one part and an antonym on another. Pretty shoddy work....

Hi T, As a former proofreader I can tell you it is more difficult to proofread on a screen than on paper. I've noticed a lot more typos in all kinds of publications since so much is created/proofed/posted all on line.

PS love the doggie in your picture!

T (twoo) Thanks, Donna - that's my pup Zach....boy do I miss him, he was the best-est!
