Then there’s this thread with this misinterpretation:

> [@My kid’s (SF/Fantasy) novel has a publication date!](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/my-kid-s-sf-fantasy-novel-has-a-publication-date/1024902/7):
>
> I misunderstood the thread title as a SF book you wrote for kids LOL. I am not a SF reader but what the heck- this is really cool! Congrats!!
