How To Become A Diceptions

Corrector


We begin here a series intended to raise - to laugh, to laugh, to realize the state of publishing ...- shells, construction errors, inconsistencies, in short, everything that can go wrong in a novel yet reached the shelves of the bookstore.

With this first pass, we'll let you investigate yourself to find the (big) flaw:

"- Once hung, they gutted like a fish. Then they stuffed him inside the film, instead of the intestines. The examiner is quite formal about it: the victim was already dead at that time, evidenced by petechiae in her eyes. Death by asphyxiation. It's unclear whether it is because of the hanging.
The cat crept towards the door and cried out. Lucie opened the door, then looked at a photo. The old man, open from neck to pubis. His guts spilled over the floor, fell over one meter in height. His eyes were missing. Enucleation, too. Instead, two small pieces of celluloid sunken, that might suggest that he was wearing sunglasses.
- His eyes ...
- Missing. "

Feel free to send us your findings by email. As the author of the above passage, to know his name select / highlight the line below.
