I have postponed soft graduation dates twice now. The first paper reviews are due soon. any minute now. From this vantage point they are hardly as important as I used to think they are. Things happened that I would like to write about. But they would each take greater examination. Briefly however, the synopsis is that I stalled until the boss suggested various figures from my labmeeting. Things Ive been showing forever. Obviously they are figures, but which figures. I was frozen, still not proposing things for myself. Im full of ideas, but years of being beaten down by the boss, and as well by myself, even back in college, resulted in me being unable to propose finally a real professional product. Taking things way too seriously to produces a scewing draft.
Seriously. Make a draft. Make the figures and then write the results about them. Then make the legends. Not sure how? go look at 5 papers you would never read in the journal you want to send it too. Intangibles include years of seeing where papers in your field go. Deciding that the project has turned from exploratory to finalizing. make a goddamned outline of the goals. Use outline format. write the ideas down. Later reconsider them. tighten them, move them around.
