I need a couple of proof readers to look over this issue of FWG. To see if there are any glaring errors. I would like overall opinion and any major prob's. Detailed critiques are not needed. Sixty pages.
I am submitting to printer and hope to find any other errors before presses roll.

JB, I emailed you about this. If you want me to look, reply to that address and not the one in my profile (I've been having issues with my web e-mail).
I can have it back to you Monday at the latest, but I would need to receive within the next half hour (I'm going Hitchhiking! ).

Thanks to all of you who helped out (or are helping out)
We did find one glaring error...
someone overwrote the finished edited file with the unedited one! So now we have to re-edit the whole thing again- and we are up against the deadline woohoo aren't we having fun now! Thanks Beth for pointing out the grammatical errors otherwise I may not have realized the thing had been trashed.
Good news the cover is finished and up on the website now.
Again thanks for the help.

I feel the authors whose stories in the magazine would have made excellent overall proofreaders. Perhaps instead of posting it here, send it out to those authors. I'm also quite certain that many of them would jump at the chance to help proof the publication they would appear in before it is sent to the printers. I know I would.

I see your point. At this stage my thought process is to have fresh eyes with no connection to the story review it.
Once that was corrected I was going to have the writers review the corrected proof for any errors etc in their submissions. BTW I fixed the "e" on page 1.
