Copyedits returned! 🎉
That phase was less fun than writing, but more fun than fact checking. Am I ready to let this book go? ABSOLUTELY!!!
I did get to make a bit of lemonade in this last phase by connecting with a researcher who I realized would hate what I wrote, realizing that I had in fact gotten things not quite right, and cooperatively fixing it in a way that slips right into the book's central thesis. Today I'm grateful for a gracious colleague.
Next up: Proofs!
