No, there was at least one example (in the two pages I bothered to read) of a period instead of a comma in what was obviously one sentence. It was not writing style.

I agree that budget matters and that mid-list books won't get the attention bigger books will, but the basic formatting issues and stuff in that example are really attrocious and shouldn't have gotten past a first glance at the publishers. Even having a summer intern go through it would have had better results than that.
