A Story by JD Major
"

a careless Typo ...in 12 lines

"
Bureau of Last-Resort Helpline

"BLR. What is your issue?"
~
"A typo. I texted I love you Marina to my girlfriend Katrina."
Please. Can you fix it? Retroactively?"
~
"M is snug to K on the keyboard--ainnocent typo. Yes. Unless there are muddling mindful factors."
~
" ... Mindful factors? ...Uh, like if Katrina had two pretty sisters, one of them Marina?"
~
"That would nix a fix, sir, yes."
~
"But, please! I've never asked anything of the Bureau before."
~
"Why didn't you say so, sir? We can grace-fix a first typo. Done! Fixed! ...Oops!"
~
" ...Oops?"
~
"Sorry, sir, I hit J--snug to K--but I'm sure Katrina will see it as just an innocent typo, not mindful."
~
"But! But, her younger sister is Jarina! Please fix it!"
~
"Sorry, sir, can't. We can grace-fix only one typo."

Those damn typos....the keys are too close together, especially if the typist has had one too many.

Haha, Yes, proof is key! Typos are invisible to writers, and the only thing readers see!
