The troubling subject line came from http://girlondemand.blogspot.com/2006/07/opening-paragraphs-of-recent-pods-that.html, wherein the author collected the first line of POD (Print on Demand) books that they read, and immediately closed because they found the lines disturbing, misspelled, or both.

Date: 2006-07-24 07:21 pm (UTC)the *stories* were okay, but the editing was somewhere between awful and nonexistant. It took so much away from writing that otherwise would have been somewhat decent. I wonder if there's any kind of market for editing in our community, especially for folks who are doing self-published/print on demand books. Probably not, sadly. the folks who need it most are least likely to go looking for it.

Except for the typo, I liked #11 ("Everyday was like Monday for Trudy Goldman...").
