Several days after I published my first novel Hiking In, I felt lousy and was out-of-sorts. I wasn’t ill. I hadn’t participated in any overly vigorous exercise. I chalked it up to having a few ‘not great’ days. Almost a month later, a reader generously notified me that in the novel's Author Notes, I had a misspelling. Somehow ‘Chilkoot Pass’ had been changed to ‘Chill-out Pass.’
