Copyediting is absolutely fine. Especially as it was the fifth public occasion of my buggering it up!

Ally: Welcome! The only reason I post so much is that it’s much easier than writing novels. I am bad.
I passed on your message to Scott. He’s way too busy with Extras to read my blog. He’s working his arse off.
