Similar for me, cromag. After having gotten so involved in it all as to have heard the voices, the only way to gain the distance needed to really assess the result is to put it aside. ... Though, in my case, putting it aside generally comes after (about) the second draft. I only bother with the full revision process on work that survives reassessment after having put it aside.
