Got the copyedits off a little after noon today, after emailing my editor the typed-in form of them, which really should mean they can work off that email if they so desire. So that’s sorted. Spent the remainder of the afternoon working on the DEMON HUNTS AAs, which I got halfway through. I’ll finish tomorrow, and get them typed in and sent off. And then the AFS, and an appointment tomorrow (*gasp*! leaving the house!) and some paperwork to fill out and a phone call to make and then, as…

an open apology
This is an apology to all the heavily perfumed women at the pool I have ever cursed. Don’t get me wrong. You are god-awful blights upon the swimming community.

You guys are all extremely, extremely cool. Thank you…
blgh.
Okay. Copyedits done, at least in the first pass. Tomorrow I’ll have to go through them again and either type them up or at least make sure my changes are clear enough, so that the manuscript can go back in the mail (at horrific expense) on Monday.

Yes, these are the details of a glamorous life as a writer. :) Just in case I thought I might be…
