My copy-edit? Is finished, thanks. Except that I have to decide whether people say "Yes, Majesty" or "Yes, majesty". Etc. I understand the former, but I really don't like too many intrusive capitals. And "majesty" is just a grander version of "lord", and she isn't even quibbling over "yes, lord," so...

However. My copy-edit? Is also wet. Um, distinctly. My bag is ... less waterproof than one might have hoped.

I have fanned it out in the airing-cupboard, and we are hoping it will be dry by tomorrow. Wrinkly, but dry.

In other news: when things are scary-complicated and unfamiliar and come with scary-complicated instructions? It would really help if those instructions were accurate, y'know? And yes, I have spent thirty years buying technology and having the hard-copy instructions not quite match the process because something's been changed in the meantime, but this is actual misprints, illustrations showing the wrong thing, leading a man entirely astray, snarl...
