Proofreading Gotchas

[Naughtylit81]

Went through my story that published today and realized I am missing a noun in a sentence. A minor character is wearing a skin tight black something. I missed the word pants.

More aggrevating I had three editors go over the story. We all missed it. Ultimately my fault and responsibility. Still, four of us missed the fact Melissa is wearing an unknown skin tight black something.

Yesh. I am half tempted, since the story is less than a day old to pull it down and fix it.

I doubt anyone will notice or say anything, I wouldn't bother.

It'll take two or three weeks. You need to find better editors

I bet a big proportion of your readers will also miss it.

I missed the whole first paragraph in one of my stories. Copy and paste error. I'm not sure which is more shameful, the fact that I made the mistake and didn't notice during the preview, or the fact that the story works fine without it and nobody has gone "hey, is there a paragraph missing here?"

I haven't bothered to fix it.
