I'd like to back up a bit and address a statement in an earlier post that has been gnawing at me.

I was doubly embarrassed, however, by the reams and reams of grammatical and punctuation corrections I sent back...only to discover they were part of the original!!!!
I spent last night and this morning re-reading the book you referenced and I'm sorry but I don't find reams and reams of errors. Sure there are a handful. Some fall into the category of author/editor error and the others I can tell are type-setting errors. But reams and reams? No. You could not have been editing from the original paperback book because you'd have known it was a plagiarized piece of work and the whole incident would never have taken place. So were you editing from a Word document that had been typed using the original book as copy? That would lend itself to "reams and reams" of errors. I wouldn't bother with this except the author isn't here to defend herself.
