If you write “he was working since”, the “EDITOR” changes it to … working from”- and if you change to “….from” in the next letter, he reverts to “since”. If you use “many”, it is ‘corrected’ to “number of”; and if you make it “number of” next time, he promptly changes to “many”. If you write “further to “, it will be changed to “subsequent to” and if you use “subsequent to”, it is changed to “further to”… and thus it goes on and on…. .
No doubt you feel bad -that your originality is not recognized, creativity is not acknowledged - it is just a passing phase, and hurts only initially. After some time, you get used to it- only if such changes are seen, you feel relieved. You will learn to take things stoically- that “even the best can be bettered” and that is what is happening to you! You too will learn soon to edit the “Editor”.
