Done. Sorta.
First pass through the copy-edits finished, little bits of paper added here and there by request. ("This sentence is fuzzy..." Hey, some people _like_ fuzzy sentences. Scritch them behind the ears and they purr...)
Now I need to go through and examine all those red-pen hyphens, breaks, and such with a prejudiced eye. Like, when Maine-speak uses "damnfool" as an adjective, it is _indeed_ one word. As with "half-brother" versus "half brother," "damnfool" and "damn fool" have different meanings.
And then Wife needs to read through the thing and tell me the places where I'm wrong, wrong, wrong.
