Editors: can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em.

eReaders are a tricky thing--a thing editors are apparently still learning to adapt to.

Romantic book writer Susan Andersen knows this more than most. According to British newspaper The Guardian, an editor missed a key misspelling on the eReader edition of her latest shirt-ripper.

The misspelling?

"He stiffened for a moment but then she felt his muscles loosen as he shi**ed on the ground."

SHIFTED!!! As he SHIFTED on the ground is what it's supposed to say. You can imagine how Andersen feels. Otherwise it sounds like she writes some really--uhhh--freaky stuff.
