Crisscross question--not really a spoiler - Ken Valentine - 09-05-2007
sigokat Wrote:That's cool, fpw. Now granted I don't know many authors (none actually...lol) but the fact that you take feeback and goof spots form your readers is totally cool. Do a lot of authors do that or do they rely on their editors? I mean, what year was The Tomb written? And what year is it now? (Honestly, I don't know...please tell me...lol)
Top drawer is all I have to say about that, top drawer, Mr. Wilson.
It's very hot here and I think I fried my brain a little today in Kuwait City...please forgive ol' Sig!!
I think it was originally published in 1984 . . . and that was what? Three years ago?

Crisscross question--not really a spoiler - BK Akitas - 09-05-2007
too bad I didn't get an arc of Rakoshi so that could be fixed- I spotted the issue with timelines (cover story about Kusumk and Kolabati's parents) right away. but hmmmm, maybe if it goes to pb......
I'm a stickler for details.
I used to get arc's all the time when I was working with a literacy program funded by a local bookseller, and always filled out the comment cards. love to go back and read them later to see what revisions or edits have been made.
as for leaving in the part about showing Vicks how to check out a chocolate, it's just one of those lil skllls its fun to know- and my own daughter, bless her rotten little self, has been known to open a box of dark chocolates (which I love and she hates), pull off the bottoms and suck out the fillings. she thoughtfully puts them back into place. isn't she sweet?

Does that mean you can't eat cats, or just that you shouldnt eat too many? :confused:
