I asked Macmillan ages ago to put the Dead Ernest one right, and they still haven't done it. But as no-one notices, who cares?

So now I've made sense of them I still have to find the blunder in Dead Ernest. So far I've failed miserably. Oh no. It is SO OBVIOUS. I've read it three or four times and only now on going back whilst writing this have I seen it. How could that have happened?! So funny. It's a good example of us reading what we expect to read and not reading what is actually there.Graham Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196744947133121475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-6483970775613323752012-07-16T19:40:18.550+02:002012-07-16T19:40:18.550+02:00He he I am trying to imagine your reaction when yo...He he I am trying to imagine your reaction when you realized that at the launch... what did you do?<br /><br />Wow - your editor for Basic Theology truly is a miracle worker!!Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-2493462020012442712012-07-16T17:42:20.979+02:002012-07-16T17:42:20.979+02:00But it went through umpteen edits ( and editors) a...But it went through umpteen edits ( and editors) and wasn't discovered till I read it aloud at the launch.<br /><br />(Edits to Basic Theology all done, thanks to my miracle worker editor!)Frances Garroodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10614916006798375706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-49548648779660397422012-07-16T17:27:51.740+02:002012-07-16T17:27:51.740+02:00HA!!
