Yesterday I completed my edit of a particularly difficult manuscript (see 5/26 entry).
It pretty much took all the editing out of me, and I have struggled today to do any online article editing—my second gig along with book editing.
I believe I am suffering from a condition that the American Psychiatric Association needs to include in its DSM: PTESD, or Post-Traumatic-Editing Stress Disorder.
