Buffy ,'Empty Places'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
It's on potassium channels and lipid interactions....
I'm sure, if I rearranged all those words, I'd come up with a 42-like answer to all the world's problems.
Much sense-making and rich-resource ~ma to you, my paper crafting friend. I'm wishing you a sudden and fruitful breakthrough that makes it all fall easily into place. That or really strong stimulants and pounds of luck.
For me, the outline is always the hardest part. You have to take all the data you've accumulated and organize it into something understandable. Yuck. Writing the actual paper? Much easier IMO.
Lots of outline~ma to you.
Agreed! Once the outline is done, the rest is cake.
What is this "outline" of which you speak?
On assignments where we had to turn in an outline, I wrote the paper first, then made an outline of it.

I think we have an over-achiever in here tonight! Writing an outline and a paper at the last minute is a time honored tradition.
beathen is me!
TIME honored tradition. There is no other way.
I learned how to do that 3 x 5 card outline (and to procrastinate) in the 7th grade. Can't produce a paper any other way!
And honestly? The ones I pulled out of my orafice at the last minute always turned out the best.
Oh, I was all about the last minute. It was almost a matter of pride to see how close I could cut it without turning in the paper late or allowing my grade to suffer.
Which just means I've had to completely retrain myself now that I'm self-employed. No one gives me a deadline on a novel, and you can't write a 400-page novel on one burst of adrenaline like a 10-page paper.

There's no comparison here. Writing a 400-page novel is something you (hopefully) like and/or want to do. Papers for school - those you are forced to do and doing them at the last minute always forces you to be clever and not over-write it.

Next Wednesday. Go.
