| Re: Rampant Misspellings
If the problem is his, that is what copy-editors are there to fix. More likely the errors crept in during production. Theoretically, authors spot these things when they get the page proofs or galleys, but by the time you get to page proofs you've read the same lines over and over so many times, the eye sees what it expects to see rather than what's actually there. (For a dyslexic writer, I imagine that would be even more of a problem.) There still should have been a proof-reader, but proof-readers let more and more mistakes get by these days.
Maybe you're thinking of Terry Goodkind, nixie. I've read that he is dyslexic. |
