Mongoose 2300AD: Let me proof-read 2300 products

I couldn't find Colin's PM tag so I'm putting this here...

Atlas of the French Arm is beautiful. It's incredibly detailed, great graphics, tons of new information. It's a win-win. And it's awesome to see 2300 getting some love from Mongoose with the better art.

The proof-reading though... needs work. It's nothing major. Just punctuation, run-on sentences etc. It's not even off-putting from a product standard but, being a finicky writer, it does tend to cause me to twitch... not in severity but in quantity. All of layout is good which is where I generally lose my demeanor when margins and tables are all over the place. Atlas does not have those errors. It's just lots of little text errors throughout...

I've proof-read and edited four major RPG supplements at this point, I'm a lawyer and I am offering free proofing to 2300 stuff. Mongoose should still have an NDA with my name on it or I can sign a new one.

I don't want free copies as I am happy to pour money into 2300 material. I'm free and available. Use me.
 
The best way to contact Colin is probably the 2300 facebook group.

Second best is to poke him on the Mongoose Traveller boards.

I'm not sure he even visits this place anymore.

Was going to say try Facebook to get in touch with him. Also you won't be the first one to make him aware of certain typo's, which he does take notice of.
 
Oh I'm well aware it's not his fault. I would (customarily) place the blame on Mongoose which tends to favor speed over clean proofing. I was merely thinking that if he's crunched for time that having someone in the wings would be helpful.
