How to start my dissertation by Data_girl

"No sleep = nothing."

How I did it: I went out and I bought a book which has been really helpful in explaining how to do things and when to do them by. I'm quite behind on my plan but i feel a bit more encouraged now. teh book is called - get ready for it - "Writing your dissertation" by Derek Swetnam. So far its been good. I do recommend it.

Lessons & tips: Set time aside and decide that you will not have a life until you at least get going.

Resources: Book as noted above- derek Swetnam, I owe you one.
