Hi,

For this 7th and final meeting of the writers’ group, please

Read chapter 9 (The Resolution) in Joshua Schimel’s Writing Science: How to write papers that get cited and proposals that get funded.

Complete exercise 9.2, in which you analyze the resolution of your article.

After you have analyzed your article, please bring 3 paper copies and upload the article to Ron’s Google Drive folder if it’s not there already.

When we meet, we’ll briefly discuss chapter 9 (10min) and spend the remaining time reviewing each other’s articles for effective resolutions (45min).

Please note that while we’ve only covered the first 9 chapters of Schimel, there are many more excellent chapters to follow. I especially like the chapters on Flow, Energizing Writing, and Words (chaps 13-15). However, it’s summer, the kids are here, and in general it’s more difficult to get together regularly for writing sessions. I encourage you to continue reading Schimel and employing his methods in your writing.
