Many thanks.

A very attractive and well constructed cover, slightly spoiled by 8 spelling/typo errors in the text at the top on the back... which is a shame.

I did a re-check and I don't know about 8 spelling mistakes but there are only 2 and 2 typo errors.

Hi - I don't know which ones you found but these are the errors that jumped out at me:

Line 1
(walters) should be capitalised (Walters)
(other wise) should be (otherwise)

Line 2
(though) needs to be capitalised and should be (Although)
(excepts) should be (accepts)
(mischevious) should be (mischievous)

Line 4
There should be a space in between (love.) and (Austen's)
(disagree's) should be (disagrees)

Line 5
(runaway) should be (run away)

I'm not an English teacher and don't want to come over as one, it's just that mistakes leap out at me and I hope you accept me pointing them out in the spirit that it's intended... constructive criticism... in that it's a shame that such a lovely cover is marred by gramatical mistakes.

It's my belief that the more people who see things that are written wrongly, the more chance there is that they will believe them to be correct and perpetuate the error.

Respect
