Michael Burton Hello Linch,

Thank you for your question. I certainly can relate to this. As an author, I constantly read through my work and make changes. Each time, I always find grammar mistakes, words that I have omitted, and typos. When I make changes, it can change the meaning of what I am writing. I have learned authors are too close to there own work and can become nearsighted do not see the mistakes made. Therefore, it is best to get another set of eyes to go over what you have written. It real does help. I hope this answered your question.

Thanks for the inquiry and best of luck with your books.

Cheers,

Michael Burton
