I hate copy edits - but it has all got much easier since I started doing it over the phone with the in-house. It takes a couple of days but all negotiations are done there and then. If I can't change a phrase on the spot we come back to it, but I usually can. It saves hours and as it's a dialogue with explanations I end up changing things I would probably just stet if I saw them without a fuller explanation.
