I have just sent in a manuscript electronically.

I just reopened the manuscript and noticed that the page breaks came in the middle of the sentences.
Is this a big problem? Should I resubmit, or is it no big deal?

No big deal. No problem at all, actually.

Thanks for the quick answer.

I discovered two blaring errors though, so it's a moot point anyway. Crap :(

You will always discover a blaring error AFTER you send out a manuscript. ;-)

I recently submitted a play, at one point I described a scream heard offstage. I meant to write is as a "bloodcurdling" scream . . . instead I wrote "bloodcuddling" scream. I'm sure someone will get a nice chuckle out of that one.

Thanks again :)
It is out of my hands now anyway. Starting a new story seems to be the better solution now :)

I don't think an error or two is all that important, you just don't want errors on every page (especially the first one).

You're got the right idea. Put this one behind you for the time being and start something new.
