ACADEMIC WRITING....Quite the humbling experience...

Over the holiday break, I did a lot of work on my dissertation proposal draft.  My chair was expecting it in the New Year, after all.  As exciting was it was to put all my thoughts on paper and share it with the world, it was definitely a challenge getting it all down in a scholarly way, with scholarly citations and all.  But I muddled through it and sent it off to my chair who diligently got to the task of editing it - poor soul :(

Well....I finally got it back and boy did she take her red pen to it...LOL!  Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful for all the edits...I know it will make the final product much stronger, but it was definitely humbling to see all the red marks!!!

Off to work on Draft #2!
