Make sure you get someone to check the text. There is nothing worse than finding a tpyo in the finished book.

Thank you. I see what you did there :) Yes, there will be lots of checks in place, the most stringent of which will be my sister, who was editor for court and social pages on both the Times and Telegraph during her working life and is razor sharp on spellin, gramma and sintacks. If it gets past her, it will get past anyone :lol: Plant names will be down to me, of course.

At last, someone who can spell " spellin, gramma and sintacks" proper.

Seriously, Paul, remember you can't eat an elephant at one sitting. Small bites.
I wish you well with your new project.
