My 2015 New Year’s resolution, and the only one, is to post at least four times a month. I’d thought about committing to once a week, but that would be too restrictive for me. I can commit to four times a month.
So here we go….my message to indie authors – please proofread!!!
I have read completely or partially three indie novels which I downloaded to my Kindle. By the way, I prefer books with real paper and gorgeous covers. I am appalled at the incorrect punctuation and formatting to the point that I needed to write this post.
Proofreading is very important!!! It should be done by people who know how to proofread or copy edit. Not the next door neighbor, not one of your siblings, not your friends – unless of course they’ve had proofreading or copy editing experience.
I haven’t posted anything in over three weeks! That even surprised me. However, I have a good excuse. It’s year-end closing time at my day job – reconcile the accounts, write the annual reports, think about what you’re going to tell the auditors (smile). This year I have two entities to close and it takes time. For the accountants who follow my blog you’ll understand what I mean.
