The page proofs they be done! Only 11 corrections and 7 of them were errors made by the copy editor. I had it right in my MS. First time I've wished to see the CE before the page proofs. I've learned to trust DAW. Until now. Still only 11 corrections is acceptable. Time was when I submitted hard copy and then the books was manually type set in Taiwan, or the Congo, I'd return an MS with 80+ corrections. Now they typ set from my electronic copy. A definite improvement.
Tomorrow they go in the mail and I line edit the last 100 or so pages of the collaboration so that it can go out by the 1st.
Never a dull moment in the dragon lair.
