I've decided to make the leap and commit to Academic
Writing Month (#acwrimo). You can check out the details here. I have several things I need to be writing, but I
have decided to focus on getting my paper for the Archaeological Institute of
America (AIA) conference at the beginning of January finished. I'll be
presenting on the Sangro Valley Project (SVP) excavations from 2011-2012. Since
this is a conference paper, the written text ends up at about 10 pages.
Goal: write conference paper in one month

Strategy:
Mondays: heavy teaching load, so nothing required
Tuesdays: read and/or edit as much as possible
Wednesdays: heavy teaching load, so nothing required
Thursdays (6 hours/day): (1st, 8th, 15th) research/data
analysis; (22nd, 29th) writing
Fridays (4 hours/day): (2nd, 9th) research/data analysis;
(16th, 23rd, 30th) writing
Saturdays (4
hours/day): (3rd, 10th) research/data analysis; (17th, 24th) writing
Sundays (2 hours/day): (4th, 11th) research/data analysis;
(18th, 25th ) writing
So, if you see me around in November or follow me on Twitter (@ProfChristensen) or are a friend on Facebook, feel free to ask me how it's going!
These are fantastic goals - best of luck!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I tend to be a binge writer, so hopefully this will help me break that habit. Of course, I have made Thursdays a bit bingey.
