Managing the writing process is one of the most difficult aspects of research, especially for young scientists. There are no objective criteria for a day well spent or clear instructions on how to manage a 4-year dissertation, or a two-year research project. Because the writing activities are complex and new to them, they frequently postpone these more difficult and not-well-defined tasks.

Good writing also requires time to lean back and formulate new research topics or see connections between issues or fields.

Topics include:

• Prioritising tasks (urgent and / or important)
• Focus on your writing
• Dealing with distraction and procrastination
• Dealing with time stress
