Re: Things you hate to see in published fiction

Eh. I have a flexible attitude to this. I mean, I understand the dislike and it's your thing, but sometimes shit happens and things are written by fallible humans. If it's a small typo or even a lost letter on the end of something, no big whoop. (To me, anyway)

If I'm going to have a line in the sand, though, it's going to be the you're/your style glitches, or shit that should have been looked up before someone tried to spell it.

It doesn't annoy me as much in self-published works, because your average self-publishing author is handling everything themselves. They don't have the kind of resources that professional publishing houses do, so a typo or two is going to be a fact of life. Nobody's perfect.

But when I've just forked over $12.99 for a professionally published book that has passed through 10 different editors and I spot a typo that even my web browser would've caught? There's no excuse for that.
