In the last few days I have twice taken down CARS AT SPEED to correct typos, which has meant reading it (slowly) twice more, which is a burden. I don't know where the typos come from. In the version I published ten days ago, the words Mille Miglia came out "Milk Miglia", and then a week later I noticed a line where Indy drivers had come out "lady drivers." Perfectly good words that spell-check doesn't catch. Other brand new typos too. Computers have a life of their own, it seems. Drives me crazy. Drives you, dear reader, crazy as well, I imagine. Oh for the lovely life of an author---modern version.

Well, you are not the only writer who experienced typographical errors, so you don't need to feel bad about that. Actually, my computer has an auto-correct function and it can change the word I was supposed to write. Sometimes, it works on my favor but most of the time, it ruins everything! Well, the damage has been done so you need to find our the solution! Just be careful next time and have everything checked. I guess, that's the right thing to do, isn't it?
