    Well sure but authors do still proofread, they don’t just hammer out a first draft and send that to their editor without reading it. And I was talking more about proofreading for story consistency, not spelling and grammar.

      Man, I wish you were right. I find German books are particularly bad, where not even the editor will care to find the obvious spelling and grammar mistakes.

        Fair, I guess I should say authors with some self-respect will proofread their own work lol
