Formatting a book isn't for the faint of heart.
Book: "Hey look, line breaks that won't go away."
Me: *many hours of sleuthing later* "Some of the spaces between words were 'unbreaking spaces.' Now I know."
Book: "Hey look, page numbers in a weird spot."
Me: *stares* "Are they indented? Oh, the headers and footers are in Body Paragraph Style. So glad I'm almost done with this."
Book: "Hey look--"
Me: "DO NOT."
#I already know to watch out for the Black Hole Between Pages glitch#and the Teleportation Portal Near Straight Apostrophes glitch#I'm making a list#those unbreaking spaces were particularly aggravating#gotta love a problem you've never heard of#with a solution you've also never heard of#I am learning so many things#not exactly enjoying the experience but I'm glad to have learned them#writer life#this isn't even my book; it's for my local club#I do have a story in it#and I'm getting my grubby little fingers on alllll the others#makin' 'em better#or at least correctly formatted#so many nitpicky details#there better not be any more last-minute surprises SO HELP ME
