Comment on How to write a great research paper [pdf]

Comments

I'm not the best at writing the papers, but this is precisely how I approach giving talks. I take my idea, submit the talk, then as I build the talk I understand my idea better and better and finally, when I am on stage, explaining my idea using the structure I developed while preparing the talk, I have moments of inspiration that I never get elsewhere.

I have, mid-sentence, come to understand truths about my subject that had evaded detection for months prior. My talks thrive, but now I need to transition to papers. I'm going to try to put this method into practice for myself.
