Editing Marks
You will probably never see me more focused than when I am holding an editing pen making someone's essay nearly incomprehensible through all the red.
I always forget how much I love editing until a staff member asks me to edit through some copy for them. Before I start, I must remember to warn them of my heavy-handed editing tendency. But then after the first or second paper I edit for them, they come to appreciate it.
I'm kind of sad this last one was only four pages.

2 Love Notes
You know, they probably have self-help groups for this sort of thing.
being one of the ones who went through the experience of the "heavy-handed editing tendency" I found that the groups for people who work with zelous editors really helped. I still have dreams about a big red ball point pen coming at me with high pitched laughs coming from all around.
