writing and writing and writing

Peer review is a funny old thing. My experience of publishing to date has not changed. Writing about something,  anything, is very subjective. You do it in a way that makes sense to yourself. But will it make sense to others? People have their own preferred style and if yours happens to align with your reviewers then a much smoother journey towards publication will be had.

I'm currently 'resting' my lit review and critique of the project evaluation literature. I've spent too many hours crafting and reading and rewriting. I would love to get it published (wouldn't anyone) but am considering just including it as part of the thesis only.

We had a discussion about this, this week ie whether to continue with Thesis by Publication or to revert to plain old thesis. My thoughts are that publishing matters. If i take time to research and find out information (and write it down) then I want to share that while it is current. As I'm planning to take a long while to complete my PhD, then in 6 or more years time, a lot of this information will be superseded. So I think for now I am sticking with it this way (by publication) and will continue to write and be reviewed.
