The first comment Geoffrey received was, “You misspelled alot of words and your spellchecker didn’t pick them up because they are the correct spellings of other words.” This the commenter had handwritten, not on the little card Geoffrey had provided at the front of the book, but right across the title page, effectively destroying that particular copy. The critic’s other comments, of which there were many, all of them scribbled in tiny neurotic handwriting across the same page, could be dismissed because they were apparently illiterate; for instance, “a lot” is two words.
