Spelling and grammar police
posted October 30th, 2019 at 9:18 PM
I confess that I get irrationally annoyed when I read an e-book that contains numerous spelling and grammar mistakes. This includes books published by reputable publishers, not self-published. Obviously those companies need to hire editors with an education. If they don’t know 09that it’s “should have” and not “should of”, they’re in the wrong line of work!

Even huge mainstream international media outlets don't hire editors anymore. EBooks are the WORST. Most writing is done by kids on the fly in Starbucks on laptops (or worse even ..... cell phones) who can't even put a sentence together.

Strange that you are discussing spelling and grammar police and then you HAVE a typo in your confession! What is this 09 crap?! Did you do that on purpose or was it a Freudian Slip?! Enjoy your day.

I was waiting for the comments about the 09. Yes, that was a TYPO. Not in the same category as an entire book filled with the same error over and over again.
