I recall reading an interview with Anne McCaffrey years ago where she pointed out the scene in Dragonsinger where Robinton opens a drawer in the organizer on his desk, takes out a two mark piece and hands to to Menolly. She reminded readers that Robinton never opens any of the other drawers, in that book or any other, but *she* knows what's in them. If the author doesn't know her world, there's no way the reader can.
