Review: Rich Content, Poor Mechanics

The book was excellent. Just like in school, we grade behavior separate from academics, that's the path I've chosen to take with this novella. The content was thought provoking to say the least. I'd put the book down to do some mundane chore and find myself thinking about what I'd just read.Mechanically, the book was horrible! Back when I was a teacher, we called the first copy the sloppy copy. I wanted the students to get their thoughts down first. That was the most important part of the assignment. One could often hear me say, "I can help you clean it up, but I can't help you think it up." Mechanics can be edited.  (The reviewer who couldn't see beyond the errors was probably never an English teacher. I even make mistakes from time to time and I'm near perfect. ;-))I'm waiting for a sequel!
