If you use multiple editors/layout people, or they don't do their job very well, you can end up with books like that also. While making several different authors' writing styles similar can be difficult, keeping the layout the same from book to book is not. I do the preliminary edits for Brood products, and I also do some of the writing; fortunately, my partner (Ralts) and I have similar writing styles, so it's easy for me to make it all look more or less the same and not provide jarring contrasts between chapters (or even different parts of the same chapter). I have to agree, though, that a smaller number of writers provides a more "stable" source of material, as the rules and such pretty much using the same standard (funny thing - I tend toward the low end of the power scale, while Ralts tends toward the high end, but somehow it balances out most of the time). In WA state, maybe, but not in a lot of other places. Don't forget, the federal minimum wage is only $5.15/hour, and not all states go the way of WA and base their minimum wage on standard of living. I'm from PA originally - I know. They pay $5.15/hour. Not to nitpick or anything, but I just thought I'd note that. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
