Friends and acquaintances are always asking me to read a book, or manuscript that someone they know has written. I always warn them that I'm a writer, not an editor but they proceed anyway.
One friend brought me a book that her sister had written and was going to have published by what she thought was a legitamte publisher. I recognized the name of the publisher and tried to warn them but they would not listen.
When the book came out, I was given a copy. Again, I'm no editor, but I did not get past the first page when I began to see numerous errors.
