Roxy Jacenko is remaining upbeat despite the fact that six proof readers missed a huge error on her book – forcing her to recall them all and reprint it.
Roxy’s Little Black Book of Tips & Tricks had a list of endorsements penned on the back including one from KIIS FM host Jackie ‘O’ Henderson.
The quote was supposed to say: “Roxy never fails to deliver…”
But what was printed: “Roxy never fails to disappoint…”
“If you analyse it, it basically is saying that all Roxy does is disappoint me in my life,” Jackie O said on-air.
“And that didn’t come from me, let me clear that up.”
“They’ve recalled all the books because of that quote,” she continued. “I definitely said, ‘Roxy never fails to deliver’…They had six proof readers from the publishers proofing the whole book and no one picked it up until Roxy’s friend I believe called her.
“The publishers have put their hands up and said it had nothing to do with Roxy, it had nothing to do with me and it was all their fault and that they’ve recalled it.”
Jacenko isn’t fazed, saying “I guess you learn not to sweat the small stuff in business.”
“It’s fixable and the reality is if you didn’t know I had a new book coming out, you sure do now.”
