PhD Progress: another 2500 words today and finally a workable first draft of the beastly background chapter. This week focussing on scientometrics. Now aiming for a first draft of the whole thesis by the end of July
PhD Progress Update 3/7/22: Another 2000 words this week - progress appears slower because I spent most of the tail end of this week preparing a stand alone manuscript of chapter 9 for submission to a journal. Hoping to complete a 1st draft of Chapter 2 this week.
PhD Progress Update 26/6 - I’ve managed to hammer out about 5000 words this week and broken the 40k word mark. Hoping to finish my NLP background chapter this week leaving scientometrics, conclusions and my last paper to convert
Weekly PhD progress: 2 more 1st draft chapters complete, only one more “main” chapter remains and then moving on to background, intro, conclusion etc. With around 11 weeks left, ‘feeling confident’ is a stretch but things are on track.
sunday thesis update: I managed 670 words today and about 4.5k words this week. Finished 1st draft of Ch 6 and I’m half way through converting Ch 7 from a preprint paper. 89 days and ~17k words to go. ~200 words/day til sept feels feasible.
Another day of PhD writing in the sun. Aiming for 1000 words today ahead of my now weekly progress report post tonight. Energy provided by a local coffee roaster HICS coffee
Another rainy sunday, another ~1000 words written on the thesis. I’m tracking my progress in a spreadsheet. Very nearly built a web app to track it but decided the half day I’d need to build that was probably better spent actually writing… #phd #thesis
