And we are off on another adventure! Cool! I will get the rest of these books at Amazon for a Xmas present for my nephew. (You asked about typos? I think it is hay bale. Also, El Gato Ciego if you meant to say Blind Cat) Nice work, Mark!
Thanks Sharron! I appreciate the typo catches. I think the stupid spell-check got me on hay bale. And obviously, my two years of High School Spanish were a waste. I spelled El Gato Ciego wrong in the first book also (I copy and pasted it from there.) 🤨😬 Which means I will be doing yet another revision of book one on Amazon. Aaargggh!
But that is the beauty of writing online. More eyes to catch things! Thanks again.
Ah, well. Just the English teacher in me. I am retired from teaching, but can't change who I am. I ordinarily wouldn't dream of pointing out errors or typos - they are everywhere, including in my own work, but.... since you asked! I am enjoying your fantasies so much.
I am the same way. When I used to write regularly on Medium, we could highlight text and attach a private message. I would use them to point out typos or missing words. I normally wouldn't do that in a public comment. BUT I WANT YOU TO on this story. I am an expert at typos and leaving out words. So any help I can get is appreciated.
Slam me with my grammar "errors" also (just know that I intentionally give some pirates bad grammar. But I try no to get too Hollywood with it.) And make content suggestions. I may not heed your advice or take your suggestions every time, but you won't hurt my feelings. I welcome the help. My grammar knowledge basically consists of "Conjuction Junction what's your function..." 🤣
If I knew what an object pronoun was, I would be scared. 🤣
When I first started writing online (Mac software reviews, way back when), an English professor ripped one of my reviews apart (in the comments) concerning the grammar. Justly so, I will add. So I asked him to check my reviews before I posted them. He graciously did so for a year and it was a real education.
I still can't tell you most of the grammar names for the parts of writing (other than the simple ones like noun and verb), but I think I can fake my way through writing anyway. 🤣
When I started posting fiction, it was like learning a new language when writers commented. I had no clue what a protagonist or prose was. 🤣

I made the changes. 🤓

Thanks, Sharron.
Ha haha ha! Be careful what you ask for, my friend. I am a stickler for lie and lay and misuse of object pronouns.

Too much lingo. Speak English! 🤣
