Myself
Editor: You're David Schraub right? You did some work for me earlier this summer!
Me: That's right -- for Strauss' online piece. But now I'm cite checking the book review from hell.
Editor: Haha ... book reviews aren't that bad. Trust me, it gets a lot worse.
Me: Really?
Editor: Yeah. Book reviews are generally pretty short compared to articles, and...
Me: [interrupting] Mine's 66 pages and 450 footnotes.
Editor: [pause] What the hell kind of book review is that?
Book Review Editor: This was not my decision!
