There are typos and mistakes, in books, magazine articles and news stories. <br />Frankly, I am myself guilty of not being able to do my best when it comes to editing and proofreading. <br />The reason: content generation and content processing have become far more hectic than earlier days; so much so that we aren't able to keep pace.<br />Earlier, the production process was much slower paced and it gave us enough time to revise the text and make it totally error-free.<br /><br />@ JazzFeathers - Thanks for dropping by and for the comments. It makes sense to do the revision on paper.<br /><br />@ Liz - Reading on paper also looks more real.<br /><br />@ Rajan - Ok. Thanks. Quite possible.Pradeep Nairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04873369124947878452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289342.post-15468613459480706652019-04-23T09:05:09.281+05:302019-04-23T09:05:09.281+05:30I am not absolutely sure.

It helps me concentrate.

Self published e-books are, sometimes, outright atrocious. Dangling participles are a particular pet peeve of mine.
