I have spent day after dreary day the past couple of weeks
fixing typos in my book. (The members of this newsgroup are
INCREDIBLE proofreaders, by the way!) I think of books as being
maps, directions. And I don't get to this stage without
recalling my favorite story in my favorite book of all time.
It's called Directions in Barry Lopez's book Desert Notes.
It starts out this way.

I would like to tell you how to get there so that you
may see all this for yourself. But first a warning: you
may already have come across a set of detailed instructions,
a map with every bush and stone clearly marked, the
meandering courses of dry rivers and other geographical
features noted, with dotted line put down to represent
the very faintest of trails. [...] Your confidence in
these finely etched maps is understandable, for at first
glance, they seem excellent, the best a man is capable
of; but your confidence is misplaced. Throw them out.
They are the wrong sort of map. They are too thin. They
are not the sort of map that can be followed by a man who
knows what he is doing. The coyote, even the crow, would
regard them with suspicion.

I know, now, why that is. The brain and the fingers are
apparently run by two completely different centers in
the body. Either that, or Coyote has gotten into my head
in an even bigger way than I imagined. :-(

Cheers,

David
