My goodness, this is far harder than I thought it would be

I have just received my last book back from my gracious friends who were willing to read and am looking over all the kind comments and that's great, really it is. But along with the praise I have pages marked with little things I managed to miss, a comma here, a misspelling there and I am apparently a lover of run on sentences. What is so difficult about this is I have spent hours upon hours reviewing for these and didn't find them before I printed them out and gave them away.

I'm a bit discouraged. I must admit I only gave them away to read because my boyfriend suggested it and I was actually not going to. It was only when he brought it up with friends who were over, as he was bragging about my accomplishment. At the time I was annoyed with him. I wanted to keep this just between the two of us, I will admit I am using my mother's maiden name, and I was a shade embarrassed by having people I knew reading what I have written. When I got with my friends before I was just getting their take on erotica and what they found sexy. I shared the general outline of what I was working on and got their take and feedback on what they would want to read. I had no plans to actually let them read it. Exactly what I was worried about happened, one of my boyfriend's friends texted him with his own girlfriend's comment of 'Fiona is a freak in the bedroom, or she has a really great imagination.' Not what I was looking forward to having my friends think about me. 

Regardless, I guess I am just disappointed in my lack of ability to do it perfectly on my own. I was already looking forward them on Amazon and now I have to take a step back and go back to fixing before I get to that part. 

Work continues.
