Oh how can this happen?!
I am so nearly there. I have one tricky, thoughtful section to write left, in the WHOLE PhD and I. Just. Can't. I feel like an unfit marathon runner seeing that final 500 metre stretch and just thinking, oh, no, I can't do ANY MORE. But of course you can... You must!
So I am going to leave the comp for the first time today, properly (had lunch at the laptop again) and have a bath. I then shall return and start adding text to this 'implications of the research' section which, sadly will need to draw from lots of refs again and I am sick of it. UG. I think the 'more speed less haste' cliche may come in here.
I have structured this bit anyway, and started the intros to each subsection so I know what to do. I just have to do it. Am going to run away as I am so sick of the whole thing, and try and get some perspective. the problem is that in my mind this section needs to be about 5000 words, instead of just 1000-1500 odd. even if it is 700 it is something eh?! Just the outline for now, so Sup can see what it is about, and I reckon once that starts flowing the rest will follow anyway.
I just wrote the last 1000 words with such speed and, dare i say it, panache that I am gutted to have to go back to slow, ref-filled typing! I want it FINISHED!
