Little mistakes just can't remain hidden these days. (And this is kind of an addictive site; I found myself looking up all kinds of things that were completely irrelevant to what I was writing.)<br /><br />Julie: Thanks for sharing it with others!Alison Pearce Stevenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00955543150406880055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472336490065374318.post-25046916326827700832011-01-26T11:20:05.696-06:002011-01-26T11:20:05.696-06:00I love getting links like this - alas, I bookmarke...I love getting links like this - alas, I bookmarked this one and tweeted it. It can be daunting to make sure we're getting all of the little details correct (even in PBs!).

I see this a lot on forums for TV shows-- get one little fact wrong and the internet is buzzing with indignant viewers. I'd hate for that to happen with my book.Suhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862479925124552922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472336490065374318.post-23471712437251368402011-01-26T05:21:36.392-06:002011-01-26T05:21:36.392-06:00Thanks for the link!

As a chess player, I noticed right away that the author had no idea what she was writing about.Ted Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09022309459554237650noreply@blogger.com
