The three most hideous letters: ABD. If you have to, just write enough to get by. It doesn’t have to be perfect, just DONE. Even if you don’t want to teach or do anything with it (I’ve moved on to a different field entirely), for your own sanity, push as hard as it takes, and then know that you’ll never have to go through it again. And you won’t have to spend the rest of your life thinking, “I didn’t make it.”
