The new and improved, second edition of my book, Getting Lost: Mishaps of an Accidental Nomad, has just been released. The new edition got a makeover -- with tighter editing and a new cover model. (We were going to put her in a bikini, but the editors decided that would only encourage the degrading objectification of cows.)
The key difference between the first and second editions is the first edition was self-published and self-edited, whereas the new edition had a team of people working on it. Any serious writer knows when you edit your own work, you're going to miss a few things.
My publisher, Jeremy, e-mailed me yesterday, to tell me he loved the page on my website explaining the differences between the first and second editions. There was just one problem. Linda, my editor, spotted that I spelled "self-publishing" wrong.
