Hey Edward.
Sorry I wasn't online yesterday, and it looks like it has already been edited. I looked at it and didn't have any more changes to be made. Nicely done. Let me know when you write another one, and hopefully I can take a look at it before another editor attacks it :)
Take care,
Maya

No problem Edward.
Looks good to me.
Yea whenever in doubt just make your paragraphs as short as possible and avoid run-on sentences.
You will get more used to the B/R style as you write some more and get more edits and feedback.
Let me know when you write another article and I'll take a look at it.
Take care,
Maya
