You're right, re...Happy Healthy New Year, John!<br />You're right, repetition is annoying. But after going through the revision and ediorial process I can certainly see how it occurs. It's hard to edit the book as a whole. Typically if one section works, you move on to the next. How many times can you honestly read the book from cover to cover? By the time I was finished editing my manuscript I was sick of it. Hated it. Then there are the editorial editions from your editor and the copy editor, added after you've completed your final revisions. Yes you have a say, but not a final say. The publisher has final approval, not the author...at least not until you're on Nora Roberts level. Maybe. All I can say is after going through the frustrations of the process I am a little less critical of the author when I see a mistake in a book.Wendy S Marcushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09590562856819593365noreply@blogger.com
