Nobody Cares About Proofreading Jamie

My literary manager or whatever you call an agent that isn't an agent that reckons they know how to get you an agent has sent the novel or whatever it is (I'm still going with autobiography) to all five of his literate friends to proofread, and early feedback is raving:


"It's like Adrian Mole but with swearing... I'm not sure about the swearing." - Anon.

"You ARE THE MAN, JAN." - Anon.

"I just puked in my mouth and swallowed it." - Anon.


So, yeah pretty positive. But nobody's found any typos yet. What's the point of proof-readers if they don't find typos?

I must have left at least one in. In fact, I KNOW I did - it was deliberate. I definitely didn't just find it after I sent it to AV to send on to them.
