I will answer this as a guilty author. I just finished and uploaded "Sam's Winnings" to smashwords.com. Once the book had been formatted, I started reading the book to see if everything was ok. Wince, wince, and wince again. All I can say in my defense, is that I read the book, while looking for mistakes, several times. Yet, once it was uploaded, I found several more. Reupload. I have noticed that once a book is in a different font, or size, I find many of the mistakes that I miss on the first several readings. This has to be a vision thing. The brain is wired this way. I suppose that is why having an editor is nice. Someone with a different vision thing.
