    TMW you look to see what other languages you could learn, and see this:

    TMW you discover a typo on your new book via the look inside function. This is a book that's been self edited, put through PWA, beta read, edited by an editor, and proof read by a professional proofreader. But no one picked it up, FML . No body instead of Nobody. On the plus side most readers probably won't notice either.

    Ah well I've found typos in trad published megabuck books before ( I shall upload a new file to fix it when I get a moment)

    Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas still has a "tumb" instead of "thumb" in a printing 35 years after initial publication.

    You could always ignore that. Or you could alter it by one letter and have it be pronounced the same or similar without being the same.

    You could have the first Nation named after the founder stubbed his toe and that he said 'Fuck!',
    but in Spanish.

    TMW... you read one of your old stories that is about 516pages/167,420wc, isn't even close to finish. and find some dark shit that even shocks yourself and you think. "I wrote this," I won't get into detail here, but damn it's rather disturbing. LOL.

    Let's just say 7-year-old Prince and a small band of surviving children must make their way through a ruined castle and the charred remains of their loved ones. And I won't even tell you the really dark parts.

    The prince walked out onto a vantage point over the plains that would one day hold his capital, turned to his captains and said, "Fuck the World, this belongs to me, now."

    Yeah, i know that well. Last night I ended up raiding only to discover that there was no more chocolate. I resorted to having the dried apricots. Doesn't give quite the same mellow buzz does it?
