     The TYPO, the most evasive criminal known to the writer.

Crime Scene Investigator, or better known as CSI, has swept the TV ratings for years.  Their investigative techniques taught millions how to avoid getting caught. The CSI who solved the crime discovered the incriminating evidence in the smallest detail. In most cases, it was hidden in plain sight.

Typographical Error, better known to billions by its nick name – TYPO has evaded capture for centuries.  The elusive TYPO is a professional, experienced in the field of cloak and dagger.  It has no allegiance to anyone; all are fair game to its deceptive practices. 

TYPO has no fear of capture.  It’s a master of disguise – transforming itself into any character or number; loves to twist itself in misspelled words and worst of all, incorrect word usage: there, their or they’re; two, too or to; you’re or your to mention a few of the obvious.

Nothing is safe from its raff; no document, spreadsheet, flyer, website, white paper, newsletter or blog – nothing is beyond its grasp in inflicting its ultimate sting – EMBARRASSMENT.    

When TYPO rears its ugly head, the PROOFREADERS job is to squash it.  But TYPO is never defeated. It’s been well trained to divert, regroup, and attack again.

Writers Beware:  TYPO is on the loose.  It is out to seek and destroy.  And it has the skills to inflict extreme EMBARRASSMENT.
