| Hearsay: |
A publisher asks: The $20,000 typo: would you pay for it? Her answer? No. A short piece, but a great question. If you had a typo like the one that appeared in the Penguin recipe book calling for “freshly ground black people”, would you pulp and reprint and great expense, or would you try to repair? Eds? Pubs?
In hearing this story, I decided to put on my would-be publisher hat and ask, “Would I have paid to reprint the books?”
The short answer is NO.
