This doesn't mean you can't finish the degree, but after a few days of real writing, it will seem both easier and less important. The joke is, once it's less important, you'll find you might as well write it, just for fun, see? Worked for me. And look how far I've gone ;-) Bravo on your big move.

Worked for me. And look how far I’ve gone ;-)

The more you write, the more you write.

The more you write, the more you write.

The more you write, the more you write.

 

Hope it flows for you, Tim, and put those dibbles in a jar — you know, the ones knocking on the sides of your head. Rooting for you here in the floodlands…

I can't agree more with the trials of writing. I tried some free-writing myself this morning and I found out some things about my dissertation that I really need to address.

Thanks for the post!

It's insightful and inspirational, revealing at once much about you, about your dilemma, about academia, and about the writing (and thinking) process in general. I don't envy the decision you face. But I know that whatever choice you make will be the right one. And I thank you for giving me -- in a few hundred words -- some new ways to think about all sort of things. - Ken Tim -
