I'm Indie. When I sent ARCs of my first novel to the first batch of book bloggers, I accidentally sent a copy that was full of typos and grammatical errors without realizing it. Some of the bloggers let me know this. I immediately stopped sending out copies and emailed the bloggers I had sent ARCs to, asking them to stop reading it immediately due to the problem.
I immediately got two new editors to go over it and return it to me before sending out the edited version. Most of the bloggers forgave me and accepted the revised edition. I lost some bloggers. Then there were a few bloggers that read the book without noticing the problems. I don't know if they did, but they certainly didn't complain about them in their reviews. Furthermore they gave my story 4 or 5 stars, which still surprised me.
