I sent Dave a chapter to read where I must’ve been channeling my Grandmother because I used her first name instead of a character’s name.  I have no idea why or how she popped in there.  I’m glad Dave caught it so I could change the name to the right one. 

     I am writing several books at once.  It isn’t unusual for me to have an ‘oops’ now and then.  (Okay, Dave I admit it isn’t infrequent for me to oops it.)  That’s why I have people such as Dave read and comment on my work. 

     Name errors aren’t the worst of it.  I’ve managed to screw up time lines, had an entire chapter go missing, and other things too.  I know I’ve truly goofed up when a chapter comes back to me with a large question mark and the comment WTF on the top of the page.

     Brain farts can happen at the best of times.  Mine happen when I have too many trains of thought derail in one day.  The choo-choo can only go off the track so many times before there’s nothing left but rubble.
