<p>And I received the copy edit back from Harper Collins for Book 2, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Stormlord</span> Rising.</p>
<p>As usual, the copy editor remarks that wasn&#8217;t anything much to do.<br />As usual, I then glance at the text. It&#8217;s covered in red.<br />As usual, I wonder how something I thought was well-nigh perfect can come back looking like it has the pox.<br />As usual, I start to wonder about other writers &#8211; if this is a light edit, what on earth are all the other authors <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">doing</span>????<br />And I know that, as I begin, also as usual, I shall look at the proposed corrections and blush, slap a hand to my forehead, wonder just how many times I typed &#8216;of&#8217; when I meant &#8216;on&#8217;, or &#8216;that&#8217; when I meant &#8216;than&#8217;.  Or why I didn&#8217;t pick up that grammatical error, or the fact that I used the word &#8216;effort&#8217; four times in two paragraphs, or misspelled a character&#8217;s name.<br />Thank the Big Publisher in Teh Sky for copy editors.</p>
