Bah. I has been editing today - first ten chapters - and good gravy do you think I could keep my facts straight for two minutes altogether?
- The name of the road changes, then changes back.
- The boy's father's name changes
- A sub-character has kids at the beginning, then hasn't later.
- the house number changes
- the children's names morph
- And many morrrrrrre.......
I know - I should keep notes... but I think I know this stuff, and I probably wouldn't refer to them anyway. In Transgressions, theres a chapter towards the end when someone asks David the surname of the man he's been living with for the past year. I actually typed this into the MSS.
"I don't know," David said with a sigh, "the stupid bitch who writes this doesn't believe in making character notes."
I think I changed it before submission. *worries*
