A magnificent typo has earned its own Guardian piece. All the more magnificent as it's from a Romance novel: Quote: He stiffened for a moment but then she felt his muscles loosen as he shitted on the ground.
It should've said "shifted", but I think I prefer this version!

My first book, published by Gollancz in 1995, was a collection of funny press cuttings called "Cannibal Victims Speak Out." It’s been out of print for years, but I’m pleased to say it’s now available, extremely cheaply, as a multi-format e-book at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/102004, or from your usual e-book supplier. |
